Libguestfs - Nov 2016 - [PATCH] v2v: -o vdsm, -o rhev: Don't create compat=0.10 images;

Support for RHEV with RHEL 6 nodes required us to output the old style
qcow2 compat=0.10 images.  Since RHEV 3.6 GA, RHEL 6 has not been
supported as a RHEV node type.

There are significant downsides to using qcow2 compat=0.10 instead of
the modern default (compat=1.1), so stop forcing compat=0.10 for these
targets.

Thanks: Yaniv Kaul, Michal Skrivanek.
