The QEMU_CAPS_INCREMENTAL_BACKUP will be enabled once all bits of the
incremental backup feature work as expected which means also properly
interacting with blockjobs and snapshots.
Thus we can allow blockjobs and snapshots if QEMU_CAPS_INCREMENTAL_BACKUP
is present even when checkpoints exist.

Checkpoints by themselves are not very useful for anything else than
testing the few bitmap interactions that are currently implemented.
It's very unlikely that anybody used this feature and thus we can
disable it until we have a more complete implementation ready.
Additionally the code for deleting checkpoints has many broken failure
scenarios which should be fixed first. This will require support of
deleting a bitmap in a qemu 'transaction' which was not released yet.
Curious users obviously can use the qemu namespace in the XML to enable
this for experiments:
<domain type='kvm' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'>
...
<qemu:capabilities>
<qemu:add capability='incremental-backup'/>
</qemu:capabilities>
</domain>

Once somebody is motivated enough to add the support for the quiesce
flag or offline checkpoint deletion they are welcome to do so but we
don't need to have a reminder.

Finish the refactor by moving and renaming functions from qemu_domain.c

Move all extensive functions to a new file so that we don't just pile
everything in the common files. This obviously isn't possible with
straight code movement as we still need stubs in qemu_driver.c
Additionally some functions e.g. for looking up a checkpoint by name
were so short that moving the impl didn't make sense.
Note that in the move the new file also doesn't use
virQEMUMomentReparent but rather an stripped down copy. As I plan to
split out snapshot code into a separate file the unification doesn't
make sense any more.
