qemu: Report error if backing image format is not specified explicitly
</summary>
<description>
For a long time libvirt was assuming that a backing file is RAW when
the format was not specified. This didn't pose a problem until blockdev
support was enabled in last release. Libivrt now requires that
the format is specified in the image metadata or domain XML and the
VM will refuse to start otherwise. Additionally the error message
now links to the knowledge base which summarizes how to fix the images.
