sheepdog: support 'qemu-img snapshot -a'

Just call sd_create_branch() in the snapshot_goto to rollback the image is good
enough. With this patch, 'loadvm' process for sheepdog is modified:

Suppose we have a snapshot chain A --> B --> C, we do 'loadvm A' so as to get
a new chain,

A --> B
|
V
C1

in the old code:

1 reload inode of A (in snapshot_goto)
2 read vmstate via A's vdi_id (loadvm_state)
3 delete C and create C1, reload inode of C1 (sd_create_branch on write)

with this patch applied:

1 reload inode of A, delete C and create C1  (in snapshot_goto)
2 read vmstate via C1's parent, that is A's vdi_id (loadvm_state)

This will fix the possible bug that QEMU exit between 2 and 3 in the old code
