How are users supposed to make use of this? bs->backing_file isn't set
during parallels_open(), so you generally dont' get a backing file.

Users might manually add -drive backing=..., but is there really no
support for storing the backing file in the image format? If so, perhaps
it's better not to support backing files at all here.
