qcow2: Optimize bdrv_make_empty()
bdrv_make_empty() is currently only called if the current image
represents an external snapshot that has been committed to its base
image; it is therefore unlikely to have internal snapshots. In this
case, bdrv_make_empty() can be greatly sped up by emptying the L1 and
refcount table (while having the dirty flag set, which only works for
compat=1.1) and creating a trivial refcount structure.
If there are snapshots or for compat=0.10, fall back to the simple
implementation (discard all clusters).
