[libvirt] [PATCH] fix index creation for disks > {sd,hd,xvd,vd}z

Calling virDiskNameToIndex with a disk name > {sd,hd,xvd,vd}z, such as
vdaa, generates a bogus index.  Account for iterations through the loop.

Old behaviour:
vda -> 0
vdz -> 25
vdaa -> 0
vdaz -> 25

New behaviour:
vda -> 0
vdz -> 25
vdaa -> 26
vdaz -> 51

This was discovered by Sanjay Rao, thanks for the report.
