The function vmdk_read_cid() can fail if the read on the underlying
block device fails, or if there's a format error in the VMDK file.
However its API doesn't provide a mechanism to report these errors,
and in some cases we were returning a CID of 0 and in some cases a
CID of 0xffffffff, either of which might potentially be valid values.

Change the function to return 0 on success or a negative errno, and
return the CID via a uint32_t* argument. Update the callsites to
handle and propagate the error appropriately.

This fixes in passing a Coverity-spotted issue (CID 1350038) where
we weren't checking the return value from sscanf().

Thanks, applied to the block branch.

Fam, this is the commit that introduced the qemu-iotests 059 failure for
vmdk. I think what's happening is that we use an image produced by a
fuzzer, and with the additional checks introduced in this patch, we now
fail earlier and don't test the condition any more that we wanted to
test.

So do we need a new version of sample_images/afl9.vmdk.bz2 that has a
valid CID?

This has never been fixed, has it?  I still see the failure.

I'll send a patch to fix the CID today.
