block: Add bdrv_has_zero_init_truncate()

No .bdrv_has_zero_init() implementation returns 1 if growing the file
would add non-zero areas (at least with PREALLOC_MODE_OFF), so using it
in lieu of this new function was always safe.

But on the other hand, it is possible that growing an image that is not
zero-initialized would still add a zero-initialized area, like when
using nonpreallocating truncation on a preallocated image.  For callers
that care only about truncation, not about creation with potential
preallocation, this new function is useful.

Alternatively, we could have added a PreallocMode parameter to
bdrv_has_zero_init().  But the only user would have been qemu-img
convert, which does not have a plain PreallocMode value right now -- it
would have to parse the creation option to obtain it.  Therefore, the
simpler solution is to let bdrv_has_zero_init() inquire the
preallocation status and add the new bdrv_has_zero_init_truncate() that
presupposes PREALLOC_MODE_OFF.
