img_convert has been around before there was an ImgConvertState or

Futhermore variable initalization has been reworked and sorted.

I see an iotest failure with this patch, in Kevin's block-next tree:

Hmm - I wonder if my patch to make 'zero with unmap' on an image with no
backing file prefer pure unallocated clusters over a reads-as-zero would
make a difference.

Testing now...
Nope, did not make a difference, although it's certainly related; per my
comment in that thread that:
Note that technically, we _could_ write a cluster as unallocated
rather than zero if a backing file exists but the backing file
also reads as zero, but that's more expensive to determine, so
this optimization is limited to qcow2 without a backing file.
I will look into this tomorrow.
