Series backup: allow specifying minimum cluster size | expand

Commit Message

In the context of backup fleecing, discarding the source will not work
when the fleecing image has a larger granularity than the one used for
block-copy operations (can happen if the backup target has smaller
cluster size), because cbw_co_pdiscard_snapshot() will align down the
discard requests and thus effectively ignore then.

To make @discard-source work in such a scenario, allow specifying the
minimum cluster size used for block-copy operations and thus in
particular also the granularity for discard requests to the source.

Suggested-by: Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsementsov@yandex-team.ru>

Changes in v2:
* Use 'size' type in QAPI.
