[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: blockCopy: Allow shallow block copy into a raw image

The documentation states that for shallow block copy the image has to
have the same guest visible content as backing file of the current
image. This condition can be achieved also with a raw file (or a qcow
without a backing file) so remove the condition that would disallow it.
(This patch additionally fixes crash described in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1215569 since it removes
the code)
