block: Update BlockDriverState.inherits_from on bdrv_set_backing_hd()
When a BlockDriverState's child is opened (be it a backing file, the
protocol layer, or any other) inherits_from is set to point to the
parent node. Children opened separately and then attached to a parent
don't have this pointer set.
bdrv_reopen_queue_child() uses this to determine whether a node's
children must also be reopened inheriting the options from the parent
or not. If inherits_from points to the parent then the child is
reopened and its options can be changed, like in this example:
If a disk image has a chain of backing files then all of them are also
connected through their inherits_from pointers (i.e. it's possible to
walk the chain in reverse order from base to top).
However this is broken if the intermediate nodes are removed using
e.g. block-stream because the inherits_from pointer from the base node
becomes NULL:
This patch updates the inherits_from pointer if the intermediate nodes
of a backing chain are removed using bdrv_set_backing_hd(), and adds a
test case for this scenario.
