If a guest is paused, we were silently ignoring the quiesce flag,
which results in unclean snapshots, contrary to the intent of the
flag. Since we can't quiesce without guest agent support, we should
instead fail if the guest is not running.
Meanwhile, if we attempt a quiesce command, but the guest agent
doesn't respond, and we time out, we may have left the command
pending on the guest's queue, and when the guest resumes parsing
commands, it will freeze even though our command is no longer
around to issue a thaw. To be safe, we must _always_ pair every
quiesce call with a counterpart thaw, even if the quiesce call
failed due to a timeout, so that if a guest wakes up and starts
processing a command backlog, it will not get stuck in a frozen
state.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateDiskActive):
Always issue thaw after a quiesce, even if quiesce failed.
(qemuDomainSnapshotFSThaw): Add a parameter.
