The previous commit:

  commit a3e1505daec31ef56f0489f8c8fff1b8e4ca92bd
  Author: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
  Date:   Mon Dec 5 09:49:34 2016 -0600

    qcow2: Don't strand clusters near 2G intervals during commit

extended the 097 test case so that it did two passes, once
with an internal snapshot, once without.

qcow (v1) does not support internal snapshots, so this change
broke test 097 when run against qcow.

This splits 097 in two, creating a new 173 that tests the
internal snapshot codepath, effectively putting 097 back
to its content before the above commit.

I don't think the effort is worth it, considering that probably
literally nobody is still using qcow -- or so I hope, at least.

Anyway:

The reason I fixed this was because I wanted to be able to verify my
refactoring to qcow didn't break anything else. It is much easier if
I can just run "check -qcow" and not have to worry about which failures
are just test bugs, vs genuine code bugs I've created. IOW, as long as
qcow.c exists in the code base, IMHO, we should make sure the iotests
continue to pass

On that point, IMHO, it would be beneficial if we had some CI system
that was setup to run the iotests on all new changes, across all the
different disk formats we expect the iotests to work on. We get far
too many regressions with iotests breaking and no one noticing right
now :-(

Right, what I meant is that I don't think it's worth fixing tests for
qcow. If they don't work and it isn't qcow that's broken (but just the
test requiring something that qcow does not have), just removing it from
the _supported_fmt list is usually sufficient in my opinion.

Indeed, but that would require all of the iotests consistently passing
first...
