compatibility

Makes sense - this is code on the destination, but we may be migrating 
storage from an older libvirt that wasn't using blockdev, so we must 
export the same name as expected by that older client (our goal is to 
allow migration as a way to upgrade from a -device command line to a 
-blockdev command line, without any guest downtime)
