raw-posix: add raw_get_aio_fd() for virtio-blk-data-plane
The raw_get_aio_fd() function allows virtio-blk-data-plane to get the file descriptor of a raw image file with Linux AIO enabled. This interface is really a layering violation that can be resolved once the block layer is able to run outside the global mutex - at that point virtio-blk-data-plane will switch from custom Linux AIO code to using the block layer.
