Back in commit d9f059aa6c (qemu-img: Deprecate use of -b without -F), we deprecated the ability to create a file with a backing image that requires qemu to perform format probing. Qemu can still probe older files for backwards compatibility, but it is time to finish off the ability to create such images, due to the potential security risk they present. Update a couple of iotests affected by the change.

I'll need a followup to fix iotest failures in 40 and 41 (apparently they weren't passing backing formats, but I did not catch them in my original cleanup of iotests back in commit b66ff2c298) -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3226 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org
