[libvirt] [PATCH 09/35] qemu: block: Add support for accessing directories via the 'vvfat' driver

Handle VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_DIR in qemuBlockStorageSourceGetBackendProps so that a 'vvfat' driver is used, which emulates a FAT filesystem containing the folders. qemu requires us to add it as a storage layer, since a 'raw' layer is usually put on top of it.
