The copy-on-read filter is applied to block-stream operation.
It is necessary for further block discard option.

If we move to c-o-r filter in stream, I think we should:
1. get rid of COPY_ON_READ flag in stream code (so, this thing to be done in one place)
2. add base parameter to c-o-r filter, to not copy things that are below base.

Current behavior of stream is enabling copy-on-read on bs during stream if base == NULL.
So, if we just add c-o-r filter, we will copy extra blocks. On the other hand, if we
support base parameter in c-o-r filter we will involve guest reads to the stream
process for cases with base != NULL, so stream operation should become more efficient.

So for me the following sequence seems reasonable:

- prepare iotests for graph changes
- add base parameter to c-o-r filter
- use c-o-r in stream and drop COPY_ON_READ flag from stream code

then (may be in separate series) add discard functionality. And looks like again, it should
be property of c-o-r filter, not stream job itself, to involve guest reads to discarding too.

In general, Max, is that correspond to what you mean?

Any suggestions?

Yep, that sounds good to me.

In addition to Vladimir's comments, I wonder if it's useful to put this
in block_int.h (together with backing_bs()). It seems that there's a
couple of more places where this can be used.
