Fragile if something else changes where this cluster gets allocated, but
hopefully such a change would be caught quickly by the iotest failure;
so I'm fine with it.

Perhaps the error message could be made more informative, but that's
outside the scope of this patch. Thanks for adding that negative test;
it's harder to remember to be resilient to bad input, and having
testsuite coverage of intentionally bad files is a good thing.

I'll wait a couple days to see if any other reviewers speak up; at which
point, I'll be happy to queue this series through my NBD tree, if no one
else picks it up sooner (John may pick it up through his bitmaps tree).
