Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2] storage: Document wiping formatted volume types

When wiping a volume we just rewrite all the data of the volume, not only the content. Since format gets overridden, we need to recreate the volume. However we can't do that for every possible format out there. Since it was only coded for the ploop volume type, let's document what might be the consequences instead of forbidding it for every other format out there.
