When refering to a backing file of an image via node name
bdrv_open_backing_file would add the 'driver' option to the option list
filling it with the backing format driver. This breaks construction of
the backing chain via -blockdev, as bdrv_open_inherit reports an error
if both 'reference' and 'options' are provided.

If you don't mind, I'd add a specific example to the commit message:

$ qemu-img create -f raw /tmp/backing.raw 64M
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -F raw -b /tmp/backing.raw /tmp/test.qcow2
$ qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -blockdev driver=file,filename=/tmp/backing.raw,node-name=backing \
  -blockdev driver=qcow2,file.driver=file,file.filename=/tmp/test.qcow2,node-name=root,backing=backing
qemu-system-x86_64: -blockdev driver=qcow2,file.driver=file,file.filename=/tmp/test.qcow2,node-name=root,backing=backing: Could not open backing file: Cannot reference an existing block device with additional options or a new filename

Looks good to me.

I certainly don't mind. I was frustrated after some attempts to find
bugs in my code using it before looking into qemu so I forgot to add
the info. (Also it would take me some time to figure out that I have the
backing format specified in the overlay image).
