hi,all,
when i use `qemu-img snapshot -c test-s sheepdog:test` to create a
snapshot of sheepdog vdi,the snapshot's lock not be released.

root@hty-compute1:~/qemu# dog vdi lock list
VDI | Owner node | Tag
s test | IPv4 ip:172.16.17.200 port:7000 test-s
when i create a snapshot ,the src vdi will be open and locked,in the
function `sd_open` read the vdi inode info saved in the struct
BDRVSheepdogState ,and in the function `sd_snapshot_create` the vdi inode
information in the struct BDRVSheepdogState will point to an new vdi ,so
when the function `sd_close` be called,the `sd_close` will try to released
the lock of new vdi.In conclusion,the snapshot vdi will lock forever , so
it's will be failed when i try to create a new vdi base on the snapshot.
root@hty-compute1:~/qemu# ./qemu-img create -b sheepdog:test:test-s
sheepdog:new-vdi
qemu-img: sheepdog:new-vdi: cannot get vdi info, VDI is already locked,
test 0 test-s
There may be some wrong in the function`sd_snapshot_create`.but I'm not
sure the root cause.
Thanks,
Xiaolong Xu
