Define the return value of get_block_status.  Bits 0, 1, 2 and 9-62
are valid; bit 63 (the sign bit) is reserved for errors.  Bits 3-8
are left for future extensions.

The return code is compatible with the old is_allocated API: if a driver
only returns 0 or 1 (aka BDRV_BLOCK_DATA) like is_allocated used to,
clients of is_allocated will not have any change in behavior.  Still,
we will return more precise information in the next patches and the
new definition of bdrv_is_allocated is already prepared for this.

When are block driver supposed to set the BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID flag?

For example, qcow2 could in theory set the flag, it has all of the
information already in memory. But with a fragmented image this might
mean that it returns only one cluster instead of a large area with one
bdrv_get_block_status() call.

Should the caller pass a flag that tells whether he is interested in the
offset or not?

Always if they can provide the information.

In fact it does later in the series.

This is just theoretical, right?  qcow2_get_cluster_offset only works on
areas that are contiguous in the raw image.

That would complicate the API (and the implementation too if you want to
honor it in the formats).  Since is_allocated works the same way and it
wasn't a problem so far, I decided not to have such a flag.

Right, somehow I was thinking that .bdrv_is_allocated() used something
more clever, but it doesn't. So this isn't worse than what we have today.
