qcow2: Change default cluster size to 64k

Larger cluster sizes mean less metadata. This has been discussion a few times,
let's do it now. This turns 64k clusters on by default for new images.

qcow2: Split out refcount handling

qcow2-refcount.c contains all functions which are related to cluster
allocation and management in the image file. A large part of this is the
reference counting of these clusters.

Also a header file qcow2.h is introduced which will contain the interface of...

qcow2: Split out guest cluster functions

qcow2-cluster.c contains all functions related to the management of guest
clusters, i.e. what the guest sees on its virtual disk. This code is about
mapping these guest clusters to host clusters in the image file using the...

qcow2: Rename global functions

The qcow2 source is now split into several more manageable files. During the
conversion quite some functions that were static before needed to be changed to
be global to make the source compile again.

We were lucky enough not to get name conflicts with these additional global...

l2_allocate: Write complete sectors

When modifying the L1 table, l2_allocate() needs to write complete sectors
instead of single entries. The L1 table is already in memory, reading it from
disk in the block layer to align the request is wasted performance....

raw-posix: open flags use BDRV_ namespace, not posix namespace

The flags argument to raw_common_open() contain bits defined by the BDRV_O_*
namespace, not the posix O_* namespace.

Adjust to use the correct constants.

raw-posix: Remove O_RDWR when attempting to open a file read-only

When we open a file, we first attempt to open it read-write, then fall back
to read-only. Unfortunately we reuse the flags from the previous attempt,
so both attempts try to open the file with write permissions, and fail....

raw-posix: cleanup ioctl methods

Rename raw_ioctl and raw_aio_ioctl to hdev_ioctl and hdev_aio_ioctl as they
are only used for the host device. Also only add them to the method table
for the cases where we need them (generic hdev if linux and linux CDROM)...

block: add bdrv_probe_device method

Add a bdrv_probe_device method to all BlockDriver instances implementing
host devices to move matching of host device types into the actual drivers.
For now we keep exacly the old matching behaviour based on the devices names,...
