block/parallels: optimize linear image expansion

Plain image expansion spends a lot of time to update image file size.
This seriously affects the performance. The following simple test
  qemu_img create -f parallels -o cluster_size=64k ./1.hds 64G
  qemu_io -n -c "write -P 0x11 0 1024M" ./1.hds
could be improved if the format driver will pre-allocate some space
in the image file with a reasonable chunk.

This patch preallocates 128 Mb using bdrv_write_zeroes, which should
normally use fallocate() call inside. Fallback to older truncate()
could be used as a fallback using image open options thanks to the
previous patch.

The benefit is around 15%.
