The format was dropped in QEMU binary version 2.2 with commit
550830f935 ("block: delete cow block driver").

Very old backups might still include this format as a hint (the data
in the backup is present in raw/chunk format in any case), but that is
not an issue. Restore already checks that the target storage supports
a given format and defaults to the default format of the storage if
the hint does not apply.
