It was found that 'qemu-nbd' is not able to work with some disk images exported from Azure. Looking at the 512b footer (which contains VPC metadata):

Apparently, Azure uses 'new' method, just like Hyper-V. Overall, it seems that only VPC and old QEMUs need to be ignored as all new creator apps seem to have reliable current_size. Invert the logic and make 'current_size' method the default to avoid adding every new creator app to the list.
