If any of the images in a chain above a raw image have bitmaps, libvirt
would attempt to merge them when doing a block commit or block copy
operation, which would result into a error in the logs as creating
persistent bitmaps in a raw image is not supported.
Since libvirt cares only about persisten bitmaps we can simply skip the
operation if the target of a block copy or block commit is a raw image.
