In some cases, it might happen that bitmaps become corrupt.
For example when adding/removing bitmaps on a live image.

Of course this should not happen, but in case this happens, the image is
corrupt and even cannot be opened anymore. You'll get something like the
following:
qemu-img: Could not open 'disk.qcow2': Bitmap '' doesn't satisfy the constraints

So the image becomes useless, and cannot be repaired. This while in fact
only (one) bitmap entry is corrupt, and the rest of the data is just
intact.

This commit adds a way to fix this corruption, by just replacing the
bitmap list in the qcow2 image with the valid bitmaps, and dropping the
bitmaps that are corrupt.

$ qemu-img check disk.qcow2
qemu-img: Check failed: Invalid argument
qemu-img: Lost persistent bitmaps during inactivation of node '#block147': Bitmap '' doesn't satisfy the constraints

$ qemu-img check -r all disk.qcow2

The following inconsistencies were found and repaired:

     2 leaked clusters
     3 corruptions

Double checking the fixed image now...
No errors were found on the image.
983056/1048576 = 93.75% allocated, 0.05% fragmented, 0.00% compressed clusters
Image end offset: 64437878784

And the image is valid again!
Worst case you lose all bitmaps, but at least the image and the data
itself is useable again.

Maybe, worth making a variable for it, and use it here and below.

bool fix_errors = fix & BDRV_FIX_ERRORS;

I opted for the current behaviour as bitmask compare is also performant and avoids extra variable. Next to that all code in qcow2.c also use 'flags & BDRV_O_CHECK' style if. So :)
But I'm open for both...

Also, from docs/devel/style.rst:

    Declarations

    Mixed declarations (interleaving statements and declarations within
    blocks) are generally not allowed; declarations should be at the beginning
    of blocks.


So,

    Qcow2Bitmap *bm_copy = g_new0(Qcow2Bitmap, 1);

should be the first line of the block.

Hmm, and another thought (sorry I didn't figure it out in the previous iteration):
No problem!

Why do we need even this half-copied additional list?

Instead, we can remove broken elements from original bm_list (when fix & BDRV_FIX_ERRORS),
and reuse it for update_ext_header_and_dir().

I looked for the best way to handle this.
Thought that creating a new list with valid items would be easiest, but changing the approach to remove corrupt items from the existing list.

I'll post a v4 with the fixes.
