I didn't yet have a look at the rest, but this made me curious. What are
you actually doing with this with internal snapshots?

There in fact isn't a save image at all with internal snapshots as the
memory image is stored in the qcow2 image (in a different section than
the data -> thus also the name internal) so I'm not exactly sure what
you are refering to here in the commit message.
