aio / timers: Untangle include files

include/qemu/timer.h has no need to include main-loop.h and
doing so causes an issue for the next patch. Unfortunately
various files assume including timers.h will pull in main-loop.h.
Untangle this mess.

thread-pool: drop thread_pool_active()

.io_flush() is no longer called so drop thread_pool_active(). The block
layer is the only thread-pool.c user and it already tracks in-flight
requests, therefore we do not need thread_pool_active().

aio: drop io_flush argument

The .io_flush() handler no longer exists and has no users. Drop the
io_flush argument to aio_set_fd_handler() and related functions.

The AioFlushEventNotifierHandler and AioFlushHandler typedefs are no
longer used and are dropped too....

threadpool: drop global thread pool

Now that each AioContext has a ThreadPool and the main loop AioContext
can be fetched with bdrv_get_aio_context(), we can eliminate the concept
of a global thread pool from thread-pool.c.

The submit functions must take a ThreadPool* argument....

threadpool: move globals into struct ThreadPool

Move global variables into a struct so multiple thread pools can be
supported in the future.

This patch does not change thread-pool.h interfaces. There is still a
global thread pool and it is not yet possible to create/destroy...

threadpool: add thread_pool_new() and thread_pool_free()

ThreadPool is tied to an AioContext through its event notifier, which
dictates in which AioContext the work item's callback function will be
invoked.

In order to support multiple AioContexts we need to support multiple...

aio: rename AIOPool to AIOCBInfo

Now that AIOPool no longer keeps a freelist, it isn't really a "pool"
anymore. Rename it to AIOCBInfo and make it const since it no longer
needs to be modified.

aio: add generic thread-pool facility

Add a generic thread-pool. The code is roughly based on posix-aio-compat.c,
with some changes, especially the following:

- use QemuSemaphore instead of QemuCond;

- separate the state of the thread from the return code of the worker...
