This RFC adds an Error ** parameter to bdrv_open, bdrv_file_open,
bdrv_create and the respective functions provided by a block driver.

This results in more specific error information than just -errno provided
to the user when opening or creating images (disregarding the fact that
block drivers often already use error_report, which is generally changed
to error_setg through this patch).

The last patch in this series changes the qcow2 block driver to set an
example of usage in a block driver.

Note that several I/O tests break by applying this RFC since they expect
different error messages (generally, previously, an error message on
image opening/creation consisted of two lines; the first of which would be
generated by the driver through error_report, the second by the block
layer itself through strerror(-ret); this patch is designed to merge these
two lines into a single one). This applies to the tests 49, 51, 54 and 60.

Max Reitz (3):
  bdrv: Use "Error" for opening images
  block: Error parameter for opening functions
  qcow2: Use Error parameter
