[V2] block: Add BlockDriver.bdrv_check_ext_snapshot.

This field is used by blkverify to disable external snapshots creation.
I will also be used by block filters like quorum to disable external snapshots
creation.

The only problem I have with this now, is that
"bdrv_forbid_ext_snapshot()" returns false, to indicate that "forbid
ext snapshot" is true.  Looking at the function above, I would come to
the opposite conclusion as to what it does.

I understand why - you want the function name assigned to
.bdrv_check_ext_snapshot to reflect the action, but then that causes
the boolean return to be misleading.  Maybe returning an enum would be
more natural?

I apologize if this seems too pedantic.  :)

Thanks,
Jeff

Perhaps rename the function to bdrv_check_ext_snapshot_forbidden() or
something like that?
