In rare situations, it could happen that the source and target path is
the same. For example, if the disk image is to be copied from one RBD
storage to another one on different Ceph clusters but the pools have the
same name.
In this situation, the clone operation will clone it to the same image and
one will end up with an empty destination volume.
This patch does not solve the underlying issue, but is a first step to
avoid potential data loss, for example when the 'delete source' option
is enabled as well.
We also need to delete the newly created image right away because the
regular cleanup gets confused and tries to remove the source image. This
will fail and we have an orphaned image which cannot be removed easily
because the same underlying root cause (same path) will falsely trigger
the "Drive::is_volume_in_use" check.

We could think about leaving this as a permanent safety check as there
should not be a situation where both paths are the same AFAICT.
