Currently this field only set by qed and qcow2. But in fact, all backing-supporting formats (parallels, qcow, qcow2, qed, vmdk) share these semantics: on unallocated blocks, if there is no backing file they just memset the buffer with zeroes. So, document this behavior for .supports_backing and drop .unallocated_blocks_are_zero Signed-off-by:
