Every image should be checked if there is infinite loop in backing
file chain before open it. So infinite loop check was added into
bdrv_new_open(). If @filename is opened with no flags
BDRV_O_NO_BACKING, the infinite loop check should be called.

s/with no flags/without the flag/

Error messages generally don't end with '.'; also, this message seems to
lack details that might be useful to the end user (we know that either
the backing chain couldn't be completely followed or has a loop).
