[PATCH 8/8] block: drop unallocated_blocks_are_zero

[Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsementsov@virtuozzo.com>]

Currently this field only set by qed and qcow2. But in fact, all
backing-supporting formats (parallels, qcow, qcow2, qed, vmdk) share
this semantics: on unallocated blocks, if there is no backing file they
just memset the buffer with zeroes.

So, document this behavior for .supports_backing and drop
.unallocated_blocks_are_zero
