This series is adding [-c | --compress] option to "qemu-img rebase"
command, which might prove useful for saving some disk space when, for
instance, manipulating chains of backup images. Along the way I had to
make a couple of minor improvements.
The first 2 patches are a bug fix + corresponding test case.
Patch 3 merely fixes wrong args used in allocation.
Patch 4 makes write requests during rebase operation cluster_size-aligned,
which seems to be beneficial for both non-compressed and compressed mode.
The last 2 patches are the actual feature implementation + tests.
