[libvirt] [PATCH 3/6] qemu: snapshot: Don't redetect backing chain after snapshot

[Peter Krempa]

Libvirt is able to properly model what happens to the backing chain
after a snapshot so there's no real need to redetect the data.
Additionally with the _REUSE_EXT flag this might end up in redetecting
wrong data if the user puts wrong backing chain reference into the
snapshot image.
