Two things need to be taken into account here:
1) With full_discard == true the L2 entry must be cleared completely.
This also includes the L2 bitmap if the image has extended L2
entries.
2) With full_discard == false we have to make the discarded cluster
read back as zeroes. With normal L2 entries this is done with the
QCOW_OFLAG_ZERO bit, whereas with extended L2 entries this is done
with the individual 'all zeroes' bits for each subcluster.
Note however that QCOW_OFLAG_ZERO is not supported in v2 qcow2
images so, if there is a backing file, discard cannot guarantee
that the image will read back as zeroes. If this is important for
the caller it should forbid it as qcow2_co_pdiscard() does (see
80f5c01183 for more details).
