    /// Probing is inherently dangerous: Image formats like qcow2 allow referencing external files;
    /// if you use imago to give untrusted parties (like VM guests) access to VM disk image files,
    /// this will give those parties access to data in those files.  Opening images from untrusted
    /// sources can therefore be quite dangerous.  Gating
    /// ([`ImplicitOpenGate`](super::gate::ImplicitOpenGate)) can help mitigate this.
    ///
    /// If you do not know an image’s format, that is a sign it does not come from a trusted
    /// source, and so opening it in a non-raw format may be quite dangerous.
    ///
    /// Perhaps most important to note is that giving an untrusted party (like a VM guest) access
    /// to a raw image file allows that party to modify the whole file.  It may write image headers
    /// into this image file, causing a subsequent probe operation to recognize it as a non-raw
    /// image, referencing arbitrary files on the host filesystem!
    ///
    /// When using imago to give an untrusted third party access to VM disk images, the guidelines
    /// for probing are thus:
    /// - Do not probe.  If at all possible, obtain an image’s format from a trusted side channel.
    /// - If there is no other way, probe each given image only once, before that untrusted third
    ///   party (like a VM guest) had write access to it; remember the probed format, and open the
    ///   image exclusively as that format.
