qemu-img info only reports the amount of storage tied up in the memory
portion of an internal snapshot.  If you take an internal snapshot when
the guest is not running, then there is no memory state, so the size is
correctly 0. There is currently no way to access the amount of the qcow2
file that is tied up by a given internal snapshot and which would be
freed if that snapshot is deleted, but adding such a metric would be a
job for the qemu list, and not anything libvirt can do without qemu's help.
