scripts: add block-coroutine-wrapper.py

We have a very frequent pattern of creating a coroutine from a function
with several arguments:

  - create a structure to pack parameters
  - create _entry function to call original function taking parameters
    from struct
  - do different magic to handle completion: set ret to NOT_DONE or
    EINPROGRESS or use separate bool field
  - fill the struct and create coroutine from _entry function with this
    struct as a parameter
  - do coroutine enter and BDRV_POLL_WHILE loop

Let's reduce code duplication by generating coroutine wrappers.

This patch adds scripts/block-coroutine-wrapper.py together with some
friends, which will generate functions with declared prototypes marked
by the 'generated_co_wrapper' specifier.

The usage of new code generation is as follows:

    1. define the coroutine function somewhere

        int coroutine_fn bdrv_co_NAME(...) {...}

    2. declare in some header file

        int generated_co_wrapper bdrv_NAME(...);

       with same list of parameters (generated_co_wrapper is
       defined in "include/block/block.h").

    3. Make sure the block_gen_c declaration in block/meson.build
       mentions the file with your marker function.

Still, no function is now marked, this work is for the following
commit.
