[Libguestfs] [PATCH] lib: create: avoid one extra string allocation

[Pino Toscano]

When creating the qemu-img command, use the guestfs_int_cmd_add_arg &
guestfs_int_cmd_add_arg_format APIs to add the proper filename directly,
without creating a string for it.

This should cause no functional change.
