No real need for that, it can also be done as a separate path on top
of this one.

Note that there's also another interesting aspect to this - currently
vl.c, monitor.c and the xen disk code uses bdrv_find_whitelisted_format,
but various other places that can be called directly from qemu and
not just qemu-img/qemu-io do the "full" guess.  Taking the whitelist
check into the guessing helper would sort this out.
