Subject: [PATCH] v2v: -o null: support older qemu-img (RHBZ#1580309)

Commit 4699c7b6e126e07c95b67fb95df58aed87a680dd converted the null
output to use the null-co qemu driver with a JSON URL syntax --
especially the latter is only available in newer versions of qemu.

Even if this output mode is mostly for testing, check at runtime whether
the null-co + JSON way is possible, falling back to the creation of
thrown-away temporary files as before.

(cherry picked from commit 1b6a2b221d04e455bdd31cff09015f74487882c1)
