If the user specifies image format through driver-specific options, The
format probing should be prohibited and the warning message should not
be printed.

e.g.:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 ... -drive file.file.filename=disk0.raw,file.driver=raw ...
WARNING: Image format was not specified for 'disk0.raw' and probing guessed raw.
         Automatically detecting the format is dangerous for raw images, ...

But what has been proped is the driver for the root BDS, so the warning
is actually correct.

(That command line is creating a chain of three BDS:
raw (probed) -> raw (explicitly specified) -> file (default protocol))
