Some HTTP servers and WAFs (e.g. Amazon CloudFront) reject requests without a User-Agent header with 403 Forbidden. This makes qemu-img info and other curl-based operations fail on such URLs without any obvious indication of the root cause. Set a "QEMU/<version>" User-Agent string on all curl handles to ensure compatibility with these endpoints.
