v2: Address Markus' and Eric's comments:
Fix qapi schema documentation.
Fix versioning of transactions.
Improve test case code by dropping inelegnet bool.
The existing drive-backup command accepts a target file path, but that
interface provides little flexibility on the properties of target block device,
compared to what is possible with "blockdev-add", "drive_add" or "-drive".
This is also a building block to allow image fleecing (creating a point in time
snapshot and export with nbd-server-add).
(For symmetry, blockdev-mirror will be added in a separate series.)
