Extend the probing for qemu-img command line options to check
if -o compat is supported. If the volume definition specifies
the qcow2 format but no compat level and -o compat is supported,
specify -o compat=0.10 to create a QCOW2v2 image.

[0] the switch is not yet upstream. The proposed (incomplete) QEMU patch:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-08/msg02549.html
ACK,
Incidentally, it sucks that while we've solved the capabilities
detection problem for QEMU avoiding the need to use -help or
similar args, we now re-introduce the problem for qemu-img.
