qemu-img convert: Unshare write permission for source

For a successful conversion of an image, we must make sure that its
content doesn't change during the conversion.

A special case of this is using the same image file both as the source
and as the destination. If both input and output format are raw, the
operation would just be useless work, with other formats it is a sure
way to destroy the image. This will now fail because the image file
can't be opened a second time for the output when opening it for the
input has already acquired file locks to unshare BLK_PERM_WRITE.

Nevertheless, if there is some reason in a special case why it is
actually okay to allow writes to the image while it is being converted,
-U can still be used to force sharing all permissions.

Note that for most image formats, BLK_PERM_WRITE would already be
unshared by the format driver, so this only really makes a difference
for raw source images (but any output format).
