      Guest shutoff after snapshot revert fail

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      libvirt-11.3.0-1.el10.x86_64
      qemu-kvm-10.0.0-4.el10.x86_64

      How reproducible is this bug?:

      100%

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Prepare a guest with following disk

      # virsh dumpxml avocado-vt-vm1 --xpath //disk
      <disk type="file" device="disk">
        <driver name="qemu" type="qcow2"/>
        <source file="/var/lib/libvirt/images/guest.qcow2"/>
        <backingStore/>
        <target dev="vda" bus="virtio"/>
        <address type="pci" domain="0x0000" bus="0x04" slot="0x00" function="0x0"/>
      </disk>
      <disk type="file" device="disk">
        <driver name="qemu" type="raw"/>
        <source file="/var/lib/libvirt/images/guest.disk"/>
        <target dev="vdb" bus="virtio"/>
        <address type="pci" domain="0x0000" bus="0x09" slot="0x00" function="0x0"/>
      </disk>
      

      2. Start the guest

      3. Create the snapshot

      # virsh snapshot-create-as avocado-vt-vm1 s2 --memspec file=/tmp/guest.mem --diskspec vda,file=/tmp/guest.s2
      Domain snapshot s2 created
      
      # virsh snapshot-list avocado-vt-vm1 
       Name   Creation Time               State
      ---------------------------------------------
       s2     2025-07-16 07:47:18 -0400   running
      

      4. Try to revert the snapshot

      # virsh snapshot-revert avocado-vt-vm1 s2
      error: Failed to revert snapshot s2
      error: unsupported configuration: cannot generate external snapshot name for disk 'vdb': collision with disk 'vda'
      

      5. Check the guest status

      # virsh domstate avocado-vt-vm1 --reason 
      shut off (from snapshot)
      

      6. Check the log

      # cat /var/log/libvirt/qemu/avocado-vt-vm1.log
