Add an option to qmp_change_blockdev() which allows changing the
read-only status of the block device to be changed.
Some drives do not have a inherently fixed read-only status; for
instance, floppy disks can be set read-only or writable independently of
the drive. Some users may find it useful to be able to therefore change
the read-only status of a block device when changing the medium.

Umm, why are you propagating the error here manually, when it was
previously propagated as part of the fall-through into the out: label?
Is it? I don't see any error_propagate() after that
qmp_bdrv_open_encrypted_call()... And also, that call takes "errp" as a
parameter, so having error_propagate() afterwards would be kind of strange.
The tree I'm looking at is master, commit
3ef4ebcc5c0360629bb05f49d9b961774247d6ca. In my block-next tree, which
this patch is actually based against, commit
656ddfaafd67af2b9234567e51cd3418588b2ddd.
Particularly since the second open_encrypted call still relies on
fallthrough for propagating the error? I think this should be
simplified to:
if (err && read_only == BLOCKDEV_CHANGE_READ_ONLY_MODE_AUTO) {
error_free(err);
err = NULL;
/* RDWR did not work, try RO now */
bdrv_flags &= ~BDRV_O_RDWR;
qmp_bdrv_open_encrypted(...);
}
But then you're not propagating the error anymore (in case of !err ||
read_only != BLOCKDEV_CHANGE_READ_ONLY_MODE_AUTO). As I said, at least
in my tree, there is no error_propagate(errp, err); after this block. I
may add it, though.

Otherwise, looks okay to me.
