There are two more cases which might need a check that the return value
of an allocation function isn't 0:

The first is qcow2_alloc_bytes() which has an assert(offset) after
potentially setting offset = new_cluster (with new_cluster being the
return value of alloc_clusters_noref()).

The second is qcow2_crypto_hdr_init_func() which is simply missing a
pre-write overlap check.

The rest (besides L2 table and refblock allocation) should be guarded by
the pre-write overlap check.

Do you want to fix these or do we need another volunteer? :-)
