[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/6] qemu-img: add-cow will not support convert

[Dong Xu Wang]

add-cow file can't live alone, must together will image_file and backing_file.
If we implement qemu-img convert operation for add-cow file format, we must
create image_file and backing_file manually, that will be confused for users,
so we just ignore add-cow format while doing converting.
