This patch adds two new parameters to the preallocate() function so we
will be able to use it not just for preallocating a new image but also
for preallocated image growth.

The offset parameter allows the caller to specify a virtual offset from
which to start preallocating. For newly created images this is always 0,
but for preallocating growth this will be the old image length.

The new_length parameter specifies the supposed new length of the image
(basically the "end offset" for preallocation). During image truncation,
bdrv_getlength() will return the old image length so we cannot rely on
its return value then.

why use `int64_t`? is it ok to have a negative offset?
preallocate a negative length sound weird... even `bytes` is unsigned.

Right. That's actually a very good question. I can't remember why I
chose them to be signed.

Generally, it won't be an issue because the QEMU block layer will
generally not permit files to be longer than 2^63 (e.g.
bdrv_co_pwritev() and bdrv_co_preadv() take int64_t offsets).

But you're right, there is no reason for those parameters to be signed
here. I'll make them unsigned, thanks!

Max
