nbd: split requests

qemu-nbd has a limit of slightly less than 1M per request. Work
around this in the nbd block driver.

block: take lock around bdrv_read implementations

This does the first part of the conversion to coroutines, by
wrapping bdrv_read implementations to take the mutex.

Drivers that implement bdrv_read rather than bdrv_co_readv can
then benefit from asynchronous operation (at least if the underlying...

block: add a CoMutex to synchronous read drivers

The big conversion of bdrv_read/write to coroutines caused the two
homonymous callbacks in BlockDriver to become reentrant. It goes
like this:

1) bdrv_read is now called in a coroutine, and calls bdrv_read or...

nbd: support feature negotiation

nbd supports writing flags in bytes 24...27 of the header,
and uses that for the read-only flag. Add support for it
in qemu-nbd.

NBD device: Separate out parsing configuration and opening sockets.

We also change the way the file parameter is parsed so IPv6 IP
addresses can be used, e.g.: "drive=nbd:[::1]:5000"

nbd: Introduce NBD named exports.

This patch allows to connect Qemu using NBD protocol to an nbd-server
using named exports.

For instance, if on the host "isoserver", in /etc/nbd-server/config, you have:

[generic]
[debian-500-ppc-netinst]
exportname = /ISO/debian-500-powerpc-netinst.iso...

block: Open the underlying image file in generic code

Format drivers shouldn't need to bother with things like file names, but rather
just get an open BlockDriverState for the underlying protocol. This patch
introduces this behaviour for bdrv_open implementation. For protocols which...

block: kill BDRV_O_CREAT

The BDRV_O_CREAT option is unused inside qemu and partially duplicates
the bdrv_create method. Remove it, and the -C option to qemu-io which
isn't used in qemu-iotests anyway.
