qemu: domain: Don't treat unknown storage type as not having backing chain
qemuDomainCheckDiskPresence has short-circuit code to skip the determination of the disk backing chain for storage formats that can't have backing volumes. The code treats VIR_STORAGE_FILE_NONE as not having backing chain and skips the call to qemuDomainDetermineDiskChain. This is wrong as qemuDomainDetermineDiskChain is responsible for storage format detection and has logic to determine the default type if format detection is disabled. This allows to storage passed via <disk type="volume"> to circumvent the enforcement to have correct storage format or that we shall default to format='raw', since we don't set the default type via the post parse callback for "volume" backed disks as the translation code could come up with a better guess. This resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1328003
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
