This patch adds support for external disk snapshots of inactive domains.
The snapshot is created by calling using qemu-img by calling:

  qemu-img create -f format_of_snapshot -o
  backing_file=/path/to/src,backing_fmt=format_of_backing_image
  /path/to/snapshot

Hey, I just realized that the logic I want here (if reuse, then check
that it exists; if !reuse, then check that we aren't nuking unrelated
data) was already run during qemuDomainSnapshotPrepare.  So we can
simplify this - if we got here, then we already know that the file
exists and is ready to reuse, so we can simplify this code.

Yes, looking on the code now again, this was partly done in that way in the first version (apart from different reuse flag handling). I originally wanted the reuse flag to nuke existing files when re-creating the image files when reverting to a snapshot. After seeing your comment to that patch, I'll embed the logic to the revert function and will take into account snapshots on physical partitions that we can't just unlink.

True, but OOM is enough of a corner case that I'm not too bothered by this.

Possible NULL deref, if you have a disk with no snapshot earlier in the
array than a disk with an external snapshot.  Also, we don't want to
unlink() pre-existing block devices, so it may make more sense to pay
attention to whether we actually created a file.

Thanks for the review. I pushed the patch with your changes squashed in and fixed the two places I pointed out.
