qemu-img info provides only pretty general information about an image.
For any image format, there might be specific options which cannot be
represented in a universal way; for instance, qcow2 provides the
compatibility and lazy_refcount options whose values are certainly
interesting but currently cannot be output by qemu-img info.

Therefore, this series adds an info-string field to ImageInfo resp.
info_string to BlockDriverInfo which may be used by block drivers to
hand an uninterpreted string to the user. It also adds support to
qemu-img info and qemu-io -c info to dump that field's value.

Add a string for additional information to ImageInfo and
BlockDriverInfo. Also, use this string to emit the compatibility level
and lazy_refcount value (on compat=1.1) for qcow2.

This may work for HMP, but is LOUSY for use by QMP clients.  If you are
passing back more than a single piece of information, you are now
requiring the QMP client to do a parse of a free-form string to learn
those pieces of information.  I'd much rather see a full JSON schema
where EVERY piece of information passed back gets its own optional
field, or even where the additional information is a union type
discriminated by the image, so that we have full structure of the
information being returned rather than just an ad-hoc blobbed string.

Please rework this so that QMP clients like libvirt can easily probe
what compat mode a qcow2 image uses, without having to parse a free-form
string.

Seems very reasonable; I'll do my best.

This function is called in the I/O path.  It's not appropriate to
generate an options string each time this gets called :).

Together with Eric's comments it seems like this change needs a
different interface that is QMP-friendly and not in the I/O path.

I've already sent a v2, v3 and v4 which address Eric's comment. However, 
your problem still remains. I think I might either add a new function 
for specifically requesting the format specific information (instead of 
generally including it in BDI) or introduce a flag parameter for 
bdrv_get_info which requests that BDI field to be filled (or, more 
generally, which will prevent bdrv_get_info from performing any 
relatively expensive operation).
