The patch adds some preparation parts for incompatible compression type
feature to qcow2 allowing the use different compression methods for
image clusters (de)compressing.
It is implied that the compression type is set on the image creation and
can be changed only later by image conversion, thus compression type
defines the only compression algorithm used for the image, and thus,
for all image clusters.
The goal of the feature is to add support of other compression methods
to qcow2. For example, ZSTD which is more effective on compression than ZLIB.
The default compression is ZLIB. Images created with ZLIB compression type
are backward compatible with older qemu versions.
Adding of the compression type breaks a number of tests because now the
compression type is reported on image creation and there are some changes
in the qcow2 header in size and offsets.
The tests are fixed in the following ways:
* filter out compression_type for many tests
* fix header size, feature table size and backing file offset
affected tests: 031, 036, 061, 080
header_size +=8: 1 byte compression type
7 bytes padding
feature_table += 48: incompatible feature compression type
backing_file_offset += 56 (8 + 48 -> header_change + feature_table_change)
* add "compression type" for test output matching when it isn't filtered
affected tests: 049, 060, 061, 065, 082, 085, 144, 182, 185, 198, 206,
242, 255, 274, 280

We generally include relevant HMP input in .out files, by virtue of
the fact that HMP echoes its input. But QMP does not, so we have to
explicitly inject it in the output stream (appropriately filtered to
keep the tests passing), in order to make it easier to read .out files
to see what behavior is being tested (especially true where the output
file is a sequence of {'return': {}}).

182 fails if qemu has no support for hotplugging of a virtio-blk device.
Using an NBD server instead works just as well for the test, even on
qemus without hotplugging support.

Image locking errors happening at device initialization time doesn't say
which file cannot be locked, for instance,
-device scsi-disk,drive=drive-1: Failed to get shared "write" lock
Is another process using the image?

Hoist the error_append_hint to the caller of raw_check_lock_bytes where
file name is known, and include it in the error hint.
