qed: Consistency check support
This patch adds support for the qemu-img check command. It also
introduces a dirty bit in the qed header to mark modified images as
needing a check. This bit is cleared when the image file is closed
cleanly.
If an image file is opened and it has the dirty bit set, a consistency
check will run and try to fix corrupted table offsets. These
corruptions may occur if there is power loss while an allocating write
is performed. Once the image is fixed it opens as normal again.
