block: Keep track of devices' I/O status
This commit adds support to the BlockDriverState type to keep track
of devices' I/O status.
There are three possible status: BDRV_IOS_OK (no error), BDRV_IOS_ENOSPC
(no space error) and BDRV_IOS_FAILED (any other error). The distinction
between no space and other errors is important because a management
application may want to watch for no space in order to extend the
space assigned to the VM and put it to run again.
Qemu devices supporting the I/O status feature have to enable it
explicitly by calling bdrv_iostatus_enable() and have to be
configured to stop the VM on errors (ie. werror=stop|enospc or
rerror=stop).
In case of multiple errors being triggered in sequence only the first
one is stored. The I/O status is always reset to BDRV_IOS_OK when the
'cont' command is issued.
Next commits will add support to some devices and extend the
query-block/info block commands to return the I/O status information.
