Kevin Wolf 73176bee99 block: Fix snapshot=on cache modes
Since commit 91a097e, we end up with a somewhat weird cache mode
configuration with snapshot=on: The commit broke the cache mode
inheritance for the snapshot overlay so that it is opened as
writethrough instead of unsafe now. The following bdrv_append() call to
put it on top of the tree swaps the WCE flag with the snapshot's backing
file (i.e. the originally given file), so what we eventually get is
cache=writeback on the temporary overlay and
cache=writethrough,cache.no-flush=on on the real image file.

This patch changes things so that the temporary overlay gets
cache=unsafe again like it used to, and the real images get whatever the
user specified. This means that cache.direct is now respected even with
snapshot=on, and in the case of committing changes, the final flush is
no longer ignored except explicitly requested by the user.
