ah sorry, I speak too fast, rbd is raw, but use qemu internal feature
snapshot to take snasphot, but don't pass the option in qemu-img
convert.
maybe for convert, we need to keep the check for qcow2 format (as it's
the only format working with "-l snapshot.name" option anyway) + if
the snapshot is external|internal
I need to think a little bit more about this
