Persist image format to a file, to prevent attacks based on changing it
The attack is based on creating a raw image that looks like a qcow2
image, and taking advantage of the code that used 'qemu-img info' to
autodetect the image format.
Now we store the image format to a 'disk.info' file, for Qcow2 and Raw
images, and only autodetect for images that have never been written to
that file.
