This PR is related to this PR.

Pass the original fh parameter directly to QCow2 constructor, relying on QCow2 to handle Path or file-like objects.
This allows QCow2 to automatically resolve backing files if they are required.

The change can be end2end tested by attempting to run target-info or target-query on a qcow2 snapshot with a backing-file.

I've tested against a standalone qcow2 image to check if backwards comp is maintained and against a qcow2 snapshot with a backing-file.

Fixes #1154

("Fox-IT") for your Contribution(s) to Fox-IT"s open source Dissect project. This Agreement covers any and all Contributions that you ("You" or "Your"), now or in the future, Submit (as defined below) to this project. This Agreement is between Fox-IT B.V. and You and takes effect when you click an “I Accept” button, check box presented with these terms, otherwise accept these terms or, if earlier, when You Submit a Contribution.

  1. Definitions.
    "Contribution" means any original work of authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by You to Fox-IT for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the software products owned or managed by, or on behalf of, Fox-IT as part of the Project (the "Work").
    "Project" means any of the projects owned or managed by Fox-IT and offered under a license approved by the Open Source Initiative (www.opensource.org).
    "Submit" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to Fox-IT or its representatives, including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, Fox-IT for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."

  3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to Fox-IT and to recipients of software distributed by Fox-IT a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made, use, maintain, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work, where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed, constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.

  4. Representations. You represent that:

    • You are legally entitled to grant the above license.
    • each of Your Contributions is Your original creation (see section 8 for submissions on behalf of others).
    • Your Contribution submissions include complete details of any third-party license or other restriction (including, but not limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which you are personally aware and which are associated with any part of Your Contributions.
  5. Employer. If Your Contribution is made in the course of Your work for an employer or Your employer has intellectual property rights in Your Submission by contract or applicable law, You must secure permission from Your employer to make the Contribution before signing this Agreement. In that case, the term "You" in this Agreement will refer to You and the employer collectively. If You change employers in the future and desire to Submit additional Contribution for the new employer, then You agree to sign a new Agreement and secure permission from the new employer before Submitting those Contributions.

  6. Support. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contribution, unless You choose to do so. Any such support provided to the Project is provided free of charge.

  7. Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

  8. Third party material.

  9. Notify. You agree to notify Fox-IT of any facts or circumstances of which You become aware that would make the above representations inaccurate in any respect.

  10. Governing law / competent court. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Netherlands. Any disputes that may arise are resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration Regulations of the Foundation for the Settlement of Automation Disputes (Stichting Geschillenoplossing Automatisering – SGOA – (www.sgoa.eu), this without prejudice to either party"s right to request preliminary relief in preliminary relief proceedings or arbitral preliminary relief proceedings.
