snapshot: require user to supply external memory file name

For disk snapshots, the user could request an external snapshot
but not supply a filename; later on, we would check this condition
and generate a suitable name if possible, or gracefully error out
when not possible (such as when the original file was a block
device).  But unless we come up with a suitable way to generate
external memory file names, we have no later code point that was
checking for NULL, so we should forbid this up front.

* src/conf/snapshot_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotDefParseString):
Avoid NULL deref, since we don't generate names yet.
