is_dirty() returned a false positive if the volume was merely the source
of a currently running volume. For example, if fedora-33:root was the
source volume for myappvm:root and myappvm was running - then is_dirty()
returned True for fedora-33:root, because fedora-33/root-cow.img
contains some allocated blocks (one 256 KiB chunk containing only the
header) in this scenario, even though fedora-33 is shut down.

Hint shellcheck where to look for sourced files, if in repository
This will ease running shellcheck from the repository.
This all either have been migrated to core3, or is not needed anymore.
There is still qvm-tools directory with a few tools that needs to be
migrated, or installed as is.
This way it will work independently from where qrexec-policy tool will
be called (in most cases - from a system service, as root).
This is also very similar architecture to what we'll need when moving to
GUI domain - there GUI part will also be separated from policy
evaluation logic.

Have dm-snapshot of dm-snapshot. The first layer is to "cache" changes
done by base volume holder (TemplateVM in case of root.img), the second
layer is to hold changes do by snapshot volume holder (AppVM in case of
root.img). In case of Linux VMs the second layer is normally done inside
of VM (original volume is exposed read-only). But this does not work for
non-Linux VMs, orr even Linux but without qubes-specific startup
scripts.
This is first part of the change - actual construction of two layers of
dm-snapshot, not plugged in to core scripts yet.

When called from libvirt->libxl, there is libvirt lock taken on that
domain. Because of that, we can't access libvirt domain, so basically
any runtime information. Without that --offline-mode, script waited on
the lock and then was killed by libxl after a timeout - before actually
committing the changes.
