QEMU requires an extra wrapper object where only the "file" member is
populated. This is basically a placeholder for establishing the format
layer. We did the same in qemuDiskSourceGetProps for the old-school
JSON usage with -drive but forgot to adopt this for -blockdev.

Add a set of test data to see whether the backing store strings are
formatted reasonably. Note that we don't support direct creation of such
images so those tests are not enabled.

In case when the backing store can be represented with something
simpler such as a URI we can use it rather than falling back to the
json: pseudo-protocol.
In cases when it's not worth it (e.g. with the old ugly NBD or RBD
strings) let's switch to json.
The function is exported as we'll need it when overwriting the ugly
strings qemu would come up with during blockjobs.

Test the output against the schema and also against what we expect.
