Subject: [PATCH] snapshot: require user to supply external memory file name

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=876816

For disk snapshots, the user could request an external snapshot
but not supply a filename; later on, we would check this condition
and generate a suitable name if possible, or gracefully error out
when not possible (such as when the original file was a block
device).  But unless we come up with a suitable way to generate
external memory file names, we have no later code point that was
checking for NULL, so we should forbid this up front.

* src/conf/snapshot_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotDefParseString):
Avoid NULL deref, since we don't generate names yet.
(cherry picked from commit 516c12237b489a3660663f9957289a245cdf16a7)
