block: Pass truncate exact=true where reasonable
This is a change in behavior, so all instances need a good justification. The comments added here should explain my reasoning. qed already had a comment that suggests it always expected bdrv_truncate()/blk_truncate() to behave as if exact=true were passed (c743849bee7 came eight months before 55b949c8476), so it was simply broken until now.
