Currently, if an image file is logically larger than its backing file, committing it via 'qemu-img commit' will fail.
For instance, if we have a base image with a virtual size 10G, and a snapshot image of size 20G, then committing the snapshot offline with 'qemu-img commit' will likely fail. This will automatically attempt to resize the base image, if the snapshot image to be committed is larger.
