add mode field to blockdev-snapshot-sync transaction item
The mode field lets a management application create the snapshot
destination outside QEMU.
Right now, the only modes are "existing" and "absolute-paths". Mirroring
introduces "no-backing-file". In the future "relative-paths" could be
implemented too.
