Hmm. cvtnum() accepts "1.5G", GNU dd does not. POSIX requires dd to
accept '1kx10k' to mean 10 mebibytes, and GNU dd accepts '10xM' as a
synonym, but cvtnum() does not accept all those corner cases. POSIX
requires dd to treat '1b' as '512', while cvdnum() treats it as '1'. I
sometimes wonder if our 'qemu-img dd' subcommand should be reusing the
numeric parsing that we use everywhere else, in spite of it meaning that
we are different than the POSIX quirks on what numbers are required to
be supported by dd. But that's not the concern of this patch.
