Moving to Ceph is very slow when bs=1. Instead, use a larger block size in
combination with the (currently) PVE-specific osize option to specify the
desired output size.

Thanks to Dietmar for pointing me in the right direction.
We actually have the exact feature I wished for (see patch #11 in pve-qemu).
I missed it the first time around, because it is not described in the man page,
only the keyword is stated in the short synopsis.
Changes from v1:
* use osize option to control the output file size
