performance-metrics: Add QCOW2 backing file read micro benchmark

Add micro_bench_qcow_backing_read which reads clusters from a QCOW2
overlay where all data lives in a raw backing file.  Every read falls
through the L2 lookup to the backing file, exercising the backing
chain read path.

Workloads: 128 and 256 clusters.
