Right now, all users of bdrv_make_empty() call the BlockDriver method
directly. That is not only bad style, it is also wrong, unless the
caller has a BdrvChild with a WRITE or WRITE_UNCHANGED permission.
(WRITE_UNCHANGED suffices, because callers generally use this function
to clear a node with a backing file after a commit operation.)
Introduce bdrv_make_empty() that verifies that it does.
