qemu-img: let 'qemu-img convert' flush data
The 'qemu-img convert -h' advertise that the default cache mode is 'writeback', while in fact it is 'unsafe'. This patch 1) fix the help manual and 2) let bdrv_close() call bdrv_flush() 2) is needed because some backend storage doesn't have a self-flush mechanism(for e.g., sheepdog), so we need to call bdrv_flush() to make sure the image is really writen to the storage instead of hanging around writeback cache forever.
