XenAPI: Fix race-condition with cached images.

The core problem is that XenServer's `VDI.copy` call drops the
destination file directly into the SR. This means that half-completed
files are visible with no way to distinguish these from fully-copied
files.

We had some code that attempted to mitigate this issue by checking
physical_utilisation against an expected value. The problem with this
code is that it didn't account for VDI chaining where the
physical_utilisation would not necessarily match the parent.

The net effect of this was that 'cloned' VDIs would never be found
because their physical_utilisation was far below what was expected.

The work around is to create our own `_safe_copy_vdi` which is isolated
and atomic. Long term, `VDI.copy` should be fixed so that half-completed
files are never stored in the SR.
