block/file-posix: don't use functions calling AIO_WAIT_WHILE in worker threads
When calling bdrv_getlength() in handle_aiocb_write_zeroes(), the function creates a new coroutine and then waits that it finishes using AIO_WAIT_WHILE. The problem is that this function could also run in a worker thread, that has a different AioContext from main loop and iothreads, therefore in AIO_WAIT_WHILE we will have in_aio_context_home_thread(ctx) == false and therefore assert(qemu_get_current_aio_context() == qemu_get_aio_context()); in the else branch will fail, crashing QEMU. Aside from that, bdrv_getlength() is wrong also conceptually, because it reads the BDS graph from another thread and is not protected by any lock. Replace it with raw_co_getlength, that doesn't create a coroutine and doesn't read the BDS graph.
