qemu-img: Check for backing image if specified during create

Or, rather, force the open of a backing image if one was specified
for creation. Using a similar -unsafe option as rebase, allow qemu-img
to ignore the backing file validation if possible.

It may not always be possible, as in the existing case when a filesize
for the new image was not specified.

This is accomplished by shifting around the conditionals in
bdrv_img_create, such that a backing file is always opened unless we
provide BDRV_O_NO_BACKING. qemu-img is adjusted to pass this new flag
when -u is provided to create.

Sorry for the heinous looking diffstat, but it's mostly whitespace.
