 * Copy offloading for qemu-img convert (iSCSI, raw, and qcow2)

   If the underlying storage supports copy offloading, qemu-img convert will
   use it instead of performing reads and writes.  This avoids data transfers
   and thus frees up storage bandwidth for other purposes.  SCSI EXTENDED COPY
   and Linux copy_file_range(2) are used to implement this optimization.

 * Drop spurious "WARNING: I\/O thread spun for 1000 iterations" warning
