[Resending due to some list difficulties]

Currently users are required to pre-create storage on their own upon migration.
This patch set implements the feature for RAW, QCOW and QCOW2 images. While for
the RAW fallocate() is used (so we are guaranteed subsequent write() won't fail
with ENOSPC, for the latter two we have no other option than using qemu-img,
which uses ftruncate(). On the other hand, this is not such big deal. If the
spare runs out as a domain is migrating, the migration is aborted, and
pre-created storage unlink()-ed. There's no difference to what will happen if
user will pre-create storage by hand.
