build: Add the qcow2 file extension to the VM image.
Including the extension of the format type of the image is not only useful to
the user, but also to software. One example is GNOME Boxes, which will reject
an image with an unknown file extension.
This should be fixed more definitely in Guix, where the output of the VM image
derivation would already have the correct file extension but for now this will
do.
* Makefile.am (release): Add .qcow2 to the file extension of the VM images.
