Maybe this should come earlier in the series so that qemu-img check
doesn't corrupt them. Basically it's needed as soon as we add the
autoclear flag as supported.

so, it should be merged into 07


Anyway, the actual point I was going to make is that it would be good to
have a qemu-iotests case which actually invokes qemu-img check on an
image with dirty bitmaps. In general, the test case side of the series
seems to be rather weak so far. Just keep in mind that I won't feel bad
for breaking anything that isn't tested by a test case. So if you like
to keep persistent bitmaps working in the long run, you'd better write
tests and give me no chance to break anything without them failing.
