Peter Krempa b40ec75296 qemu: Forbid non-raw images for disk type='lun' with vitio-blk frontend
Historically the virtio-blk frontend by default enabled SCSI emulation
and tried to do SCSI command passthrough. As this was enabled by default
there's a fallback mechanism in place in cases when the backend doesn't
support SCSI for any reason.

This is not the case when disk type=lun is used with 'scsi-block' via
'virtio-scsi'.

We did not restrict configurations when the user picks 'qcow2' or any
other format as format of the disk, in which case the emulation is
disabled as such configuration doesn't make sense.

This patch unifies the approach so that 'raw' is required both when used
via 'virtio-blk' and 'virtio-scsi' so that the user is presented with
the expected configuration. Note that use of <disk type='lun'> is
already very restrictive as it requires a block device or iSCSI storage.

Additionally the scsi emulation is now deprecated by qemu with
virtio-blk as it conflicts with virtio-1 and the alternative is to use
'virtio-scsi' which performs better and is along for a very long time.
