This calls virFileSetCOW when building a pool with a request to attempt,
but not require, COW to be disabled. The effect is that nothing changes
on non-btrfs filesystems, but btrfs will get COW disabled on the
directory. This setting is then inherited by all newly created files in
the pool, avoiding the need for mgmt app to set "nocow" on a per-volume
basis.
