bdrv_is_read_only() only checks if the node is configured to be
read-only eventually, but even if it returns false, writing to the node
may not be permitted at the moment (because it's inactive).

bdrv_is_writable() checks that the node can be written to right now, and
this is what the snapshot operations really need.

Change bdrv_can_snapshot() to use bdrv_is_writable() to fix crashes like
the following:

$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /tmp/test.qcow2 -loadvm foo -incoming defer
qemu-system-x86_64: ../block/io.c:1990: int bdrv_co_write_req_prepare(BdrvChild 
*, int64_t, int64_t, BdrvTrackedRequest *, int): Assertion `!(bs->open_flags & 
BDRV_O_INACTIVE)' failed.

The resulting error message after this patch isn't perfect yet, but at
least it doesn't crash any more:

$ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /tmp/test.qcow2 -loadvm foo -incoming defer
qemu-system-x86_64: Device 'ide0-hd0' is writable but does not support snapshots
