Merge remote-tracking branch 'remotes/kevin/tags/for-upstream' into staging
Block layer patches:
- block: Fix crash with qcow2 partial cluster COW with small cluster
sizes (misaligned write requests with BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK)
- qcow2: Fix integer overflow potentially causing corruption with huge
requests
- vhdx: Detect truncated image files
- tools: Support help options for --object
- Various block-related replay improvements
- iotests/028: Fix for long $TEST_DIRs
