[Qemu-block] [PATCH v3] qemu-img: use blk_co_pwrite_zeroes for zero sectors when compressed

[jemmy858585]

From: Lidong Chen <address@hidden>

When the buffer is zero, blk_co_pwrite_zeroes is more effective than
blk_co_pwritev with BDRV_REQ_WRITE_COMPRESSED. This patch can reduce
the time for converting qcow2 images with lots of zero data.

   v3 changelog:
       fix some spelling errors and code style.
   v2 changelog:
       unify the compressed and non-compressed code paths.
