This patch does a lot more than what's described above. Please split the
changes in two separate patches.

Well, the loop is not exactly making the code any better. If you're
worried about reads that cross over a single cluster, it's probably
better to rename the current function to qcow1_read_cluster() or
something and use that in a loop that makes sure we never cross over a
cluster.

Btw, I think our ->read_sector and ->write_sector functions need
renaming to ->read_sectors and ->write_sectors with little bit
commentary on what they can expect to receive.
