[PATCH v9 03/10] qcow2_format.py: change Qcow2BitmapExt initialization method

[Andrey Shinkevich]

There are two ways to initialize a class derived from Qcow2Struct:
1. Pass a block of binary data to the constructor.
2. Pass the file descriptor to allow reading the file from constructor.
Let's change the Qcow2BitmapExt initialization method from 1 to 2 to
support a scattered reading in the initialization chain.
The implementation comes with the patch that follows.
