dm-qcow2: forbid unaligned virtual size for images
There are a few places where we do to_sector() conversions which
may cause us bugs when the image size is not aligned. For example,
advance_and_spawn_lower_seek_qio() advances old_qio to
to_sector(end). If end is not aliged, it may round down to the
same sector already set in old_qio. Thus we will endlessly loop.
It is OK to forbid such images since QEMU rounds up virtual size
on qcow2 creation and rejects unaligned resizes.
