Bug Description

Because rbd import needs to scan the whole space, it is very time-consuming to create a large capacity encrypted volume. For example, a 2TB encrypted volume takes more than half an hour.

When creating an encrypted volume with qemu-img command, we can change the target path from a local address to a RBD address. In this way, we do not need to execute the RBD import operation, so the creation time can be reduced from tens of minutes to tens of seconds
