file for read-write" result in read-only image can't be used as backed
image in qemu-img.

This issue blocked our QA's KVM nightly test. But in fact, I don't like this
patch, feeling uncomfortable to change long existed interface... Any
alternative? Add a readonly command line would change the default behavior(I
don't think fall back to readonly looks like a bug); or even revert the
commit? What's the story behind it?
