util/async: print leaked BH name when AioContext finalizes
BHs must be deleted before the AioContext is finalized. If not, it's a
bug and probably indicates that some part of the program still expects
the BH to run in the future. That can lead to memory leaks, inconsistent
state, or just hangs.
Unfortunately the assert(flags & BH_DELETED) call in aio_ctx_finalize()
is difficult to debug because the assertion failure contains no
information about the BH!
Use the QEMUBH name field added in the previous patch to show a useful
error when a leaked BH is detected.
