qemu-img: Require larger zero areas for sparse handling
By default, require 4k of consecutive zero bytes for qemu-img to make the output file sparse by not issuing a write request for the zeroed parts. Add an -S option to allow users to tune this setting. This helps to avoid situations where a lot of zero sectors and data sectors are mixed and qemu-img tended to issue many tiny 512 byte writes. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
