qemu-img: allow specifying image as a set of options args
Currently qemu-img allows an image filename to be passed on the
command line, but unless using the JSON format, it does not have
a way to set any options except the format eg
qemu-img info https://127.0.0.1/images/centos7.iso
This adds a --image-opts arg that indicates that the positional
filename should be interpreted as a full option string, not
just a filename.
qemu-img info --image-opts driver=https,url=https://127.0.0.1/images,sslverify=off
This flag is mutually exclusive with the '-f' / '-F' flags.
