I haven't closely looked at at this email thread yet, but a quick first
impression:
In qemu 2.12 this behaviour changed:

Another thing I tried was to change the NBD server (nbdkit) so that it
doesn't advertise zero support to the client:
$ nbdkit --filter=log --filter=nozero memory size=6G logfile=/tmp/log \
--run './qemu-img convert ./fedora-28.img -n $nbd'
$ grep '\.\.\.$' /tmp/log | sed 's/.*\([A-Z][a-z
(I'm not going to claim this is a bug, but it causes a large, easily
measurable performance regression in virt-v2v).
In qemu 2.10, when you do ‘qemu-img convert’ to an NBD target, qemu
interleaves write and zero requests. We can observe this as follows:
$ virt-builder fedora-28
$ nbdkit --fi
