block: BLOCK_IO_ERROR QMP event

This commit introduces the bdrv_mon_event() function, which
should be called by block subsystems (eg. IDE) when a I/O
error occurs, so that an QMP event is emitted.

The following information is currently provided in the event:

- device name
- operation (ie. "read" or "write")
- action taken (eg. "stop")

Event example:

{ "event": "BLOCK_IO_ERROR",
    "data": { "device": "ide0-hd1",
              "operation": "write",
              "action": "stop" },
    "timestamp": { "seconds": 1265044230, "microseconds": 450486 } }
