Currently the vmstate will be stored in the first block device that
supports snapshots. Historically this would have usually been the
root device, but with UEFI it might be the variable store. There
needs to be a way to override the choice of block device to store
the state in.

We're inconsistent on whether error messages start with a Capital.  But 
our split-brain behavior is not made any worse by this patch.

Pervasive issue.

Starting with lower case plays more nicely with error_prepend().
