Instead of just checking once in exactly this order if there are
dependendies, non-COW clusters and new allocation, this starts looping
around these. This way we can, for example, gather non-COW clusters after
new allocations as long as the host cluster offsets stay contiguous.
Once handle_dependencies() is extended so that COW areas of in-flight
allocations can be overwritten, this allows to continue with gathering
other clusters (we wouldn't be able to do that without this change
because we would have missed a possible second dependency in one of the
next clusters).
This means that in the typical sequential write case, we can combine the
COW overwrite of one cluster with the allocation of the next cluster as
soon as something like Delayed COW gets actually implemented. It is only
by avoiding splitting requests this way that Delayed COW actually starts
improving performance noticably.

This should be based on the virtual disk size, not on the size of the
image.
Interesting observation: With some VM state stored in the image file,
percentages higher than 100% are possible, even though snapshots
themselves are ignored. This is a qcow2 bug to be fixed another day: The
VM state should be discarded in the active L2 tables after completing
the snapshot creation.

Show how many clusters are compressed. This can be used to monitor how
many compressed clusters remain and whether to recompress the image.

This patch adds the support for reporting the image end offset (in
bytes). This is particularly useful after a conversion (or a rebase)
where the destination is a block device in order to find the first
unused byte at the end of the image.

Actually writing all the content with 512 byte sector size would take
forever, therefore build the image file with a Python script and use
qemu-io for the last write that actually triggers the refcount table
growth.
