This is a stupid one. Now that bdrv_append() doesn't swap the meaning of its parameters any more, the snapshotting code makes the wrong node read-only. The more important point, though, is probably that qemu-iotests never tries to write to an image after taking an internal snapshot. Perhaps we should port the monitor to qemu-io (BenoƮt had some patches to add it to qemu-nbd, which should be similar; except that a "qmp" command in qemu-io could even be simpler), so we can test monitor commands more thoroughly without launching a full qemu (which allows to use the monitor commands in isolation, but mostly means that we don't do a lot of actual I/O). Anyway, patch below.
