‘virt-v2v -i libvirtxml’ has a little-known feature where it can read
network disks over HTTP or HTTPS. This can be used to test VMware
conversions without needing VMware, although as far as I can tell the
current test suite does not use the feature. This commit changes this
functionality to use nbdkit-curl-plugin instead of the qemu curl
driver.
This change shouldn't affect functionality. The readahead size is
changed from a fixed 1M buffer to using the readahead filter which is
self-configuring.
See also commit 38bf2a0f97 which
originally introduced this functionality in 2017.
