block: in commit, determine base image from the top image
This simplifies some code and error checking, and also fixes a bug.

bdrv_find_backing_image() should only be passed absolute filenames,
or filenames relative to the chain.  In the QMP message handler for
block commit, when looking up the base do so from the determined top
image, so we know it is reachable from top.

Some of the error messages put out by block-commit have changed
slightly, which causes 2 tests cases for block-commit to fail.
This patch updates the test cases to look for the correct error
output.
