[libvirt] [PATCH variant1 v2 1/7] qemu: Fix snapshot redefine vs. domain state bug

The existing qemu snapshot code has a slight bug: if the domain
is currently pmsuspended, you can't use the _REDEFINE flag even
though the current domain state should have no bearing on being
able to recreate metadata state; and conversely, you can use the
_REDEFINE flag to create snapshot metadata claiming to be
pmsuspended as a bypass to the normal restrictions that you can't
create an original qemu snapshot in that state (the restriction
against pmsuspend is specific to qemu, rather than part of the
driver-agnostic snapshot_conf code).

Fix this by checking the snapshot state (when redefining) instead
of the domain state (which is a subset of snapshot states).

Fixes the second problem mentioned in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1680304
