storage: fix broken backing chain

Browse Source 
82507838 refactored the code to keep both the raw and canonicalized form
of the backingStore, which breaks badly when the storage pool contains a
storage volume, which is missing its backing store file:
 # ./daemon/libvirtd -l
 2012-11-07 12:43:33.279+0000: 22175: info : libvirt version: 1.0.0
 2012-11-07 12:43:33.279+0000: 22175: error : absolutePathFromBaseFile:542 : Can't canonicalize path '/var/lib/libvirt/images/base.qcow2': No such file or directory
 2012-11-07 12:43:33.280+0000: 22175: error : storageDriverAutostart:115 : Failed to autostart storage pool 'default': Can't canonicalize path '/var/lib/libvirt/images/base.qcow2': No such file or directory

This is because virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf() aborts with -1 if the
filename of the backingStore can not be canonicalized:
 #0  absolutePathFromBaseFile () at util/storage_file.c:541
 #1  virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf () at util/storage_file.c:728
 #2  virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD () at util/storage_file.c:932
 #3  virStorageBackendProbeTarget () at storage/storage_backend_fs.c:94
 #4  virStorageBackendFileSystemRefresh () at storage/storage_backend_fs.c:849
 #5  storagePoolStart () at storage/storage_driver.c:700
 #6  virStoragePoolCreate () at libvirt.c:12471
 ...

Treat files which miss their backing file as standalone files.
