virtio-blk: add "discard" and "write-zeroes" properties
In order to avoid migration issues, we enable DISCARD and
WRITE_ZEROES features only for machine type >= 4.0
As discussed with Michael S. Tsirkin and Stefan Hajnoczi on the
list [1], DISCARD operation should not have security implications
(eg. page cache attacks), so we can enable it by default.
