Libguestfs - Nov 2019 - [PATCH v2 0/3] rhv-upload: Support import to qcow2 disk

Add support for qcow2 disk format, enabled by imageio NBD backend in RHV 4.3.
To use this feature manually, you can run virt-v2v with "-of qcow2".

Here is example run:

Source disk:

$ qemu-img info /var/tmp/fedora-30.img
image: /var/tmp/fedora-30.img
file format: raw
virtual size: 6 GiB (6442450944 bytes)
disk size: 1.15 GiB

virt-v2v:

$ ./run virt-v2v \
    -v \
    -i disk /var/tmp/fedora-30.img \
    -o rhv-upload \
    -oc https://engine/ovirt-engine/api \
    -op /var/tmp/engine-password \
    -on v2v \
    -os nfs1-export2 \
    -of qcow2 \
    -oa sparse \
    -oo rhv-cafile=/etc/pki/vdsm/certs/cacert.pem \
    -oo rhv-cluster=fc30 \
    -oo rhv-direct=true

Log the params dict passed from v2v to the plugin for easier debugging.

Here is an example output:

Typically the transfer format is the same as the target format. But some
outputs may want to override the transfer format but create disks using
target format.

This change does not affect existing outputs, but will using raw
transfer format in rhv_upload when using qcow2 target format.

When using oVirt >= 4.3, we can enable the NBD based backend in imageio
by specifying that we transfer raw data when creating a transfer. With  
the NBD backend, we can import to disks using qcow2 format.

To make it work, we override output#transfer_format to return always raw
format, but we create the disk on RHV side using qcow2 format.

The pipeline looks like this:

    qemu-img convert <nbd> rhv-upload <http> imageio <nbd>
qemu-nbd

I have verified that this only logs the file containing the password,
not the actual password.
