Umm, well it's kind of pointless to pass in newsrc, but it's the exactly
expected behaviour. We want to prepare 'newsrc' but half of the
functions take disk->src directly.

Hmm, yeah, the blockdev version actually does care what the old source
was, so that would not work.

The non-blockdev version does not care so it does'nt matter much.

I'll have to change qemuDomainChangeMediaBlockdev to take 'oldsrc'
instead of 'newsrc'.

As explained above, the only thing that happens is that disk->src is
replaced and reverted again, thus 3 extra assignments.
