Automated test suite cannot restore internal snapshots with libvirt >= 11.2.0

When restoring a snapshot it fails like this:

      The (internal nor external) snapshot usb-install-tails-greeter may be known by libvirt but it cannot be restored. To investigate, use 'virsh snapshot-list TailsToaster'. To clean up old dangling snapshots, use 'virsh snapshot-delete'.
      Error: Call to virDomainRevertToSnapshot failed: operation failed: load of internal snapshot 'usb-install-tails-greeter' job failed: Device 'libvirt-1-format' is writable but does not support snapshots (RuntimeError)

Downgrading to 11.1.0-1 fixes the issue.
