snapshot: refuse to generate names for non-regular backing files
For whatever reason, the kernel allows you to create a regular file named /dev/sdc.12345; although this file will disappear the next time devtmpfs is remounted. If you let libvirt generate the name of the external snapshot for a disk image originally using the block device /dev/sdc, then the domain will be rendered unbootable once the qcow2 file is lost on the next devtmpfs remount. In this case, the user should have used 'virsh snapshot-create --xmlfile' or 'virsh snapshot-create-as --diskspec' to specify the name for the qcow2 file in a sane location, rather than relying on libvirt generating a name that is most likely to be wrong. We can help avoid naive mistakes by enforcing that the user provide the external name for any backing file that is not a regular file. * src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotAlignDisks): Only generate names if backing file exists as regular file.
