qemu-img: make is_allocated_sectors() more efficient
Consider the case when the whole buffer is zero and end is unaligned. If i <= tail, we return 1 and do one unaligned WRITE, RMW happens. If i > tail, we do on aligned WRITE_ZERO (or skip if target is zeroed) and again one unaligned WRITE, RMW happens. Let's do better: don't fragment the whole-zero buffer and report it as ZERO: in case of zeroed target we just do nothing and avoid RMW. If target is not zeroes, one unaligned WRITE_ZERO should not be much worse than one unaligned WRITE.
