To implement <transient/> disks we'll need to install an overlay on top
of the original disk image which will be discarded after the VM is
turned off. This was initially implemented by qemu but libvirt never
picked up this option. With blockdev the qemu feature became unsupported
so we need to do this via the snapshot code anyways.
The helpers introduced in this patch prepare a fake snapshot disk
definition for a disk which is configured as <transient/> and use it to
create a snapshot (without actually modifying metada or persistent def).
