raw-posix: Switch to bdrv_co_* interfaces
In order to use the modern byte-based .bdrv_co_preadv/pwritev()
interface, this patch switches raw-posix to coroutine-based interfaces
as a first step. In terms of semantics and performance, it doesn't make
a difference with the existing code whether we go from a coroutine to a
callback-based interface already in block/io.c or only in linux-aio.c
As there have been concerns in the past that this change may be a step
in the wrong direction with respect to a possible AIO fast path, the
old callback-based interface for linux-aio is left around and can be
reactivated when a fast path (e.g. directly from virtio-blk dataplane,
bypassing the whole block layer) is implemented.
