qcow2: Implement bdrv_truncate() for growing images

This patch adds the ability to grow qcow2 images in-place using
bdrv_truncate().  This enables qemu-img resize command support for
qcow2.

Snapshots are not supported and bdrv_truncate() will return -ENOTSUP.
The notion of resizing an image with snapshots could lead to confusion:
users may expect snapshots to remain unchanged, but this is not possible
with the current qcow2 on-disk format where the header.size field is
global instead of per-snapshot.  Others may expect snapshots to change
size along with the current image data.  I think it is safest to not
support snapshots and perhaps add behavior later if there is a
consensus.

Backing images continue to work.  If the image is now larger than its
backing image, zeroes are read when accessing beyond the end of the
backing image.
