coroutine: avoid co_queue_wakeup recursion
qemu_aio_coroutine_enter() is (indirectly) called recursively when
processing co_queue_wakeup. This can lead to stack exhaustion.
This patch rewrites co_queue_wakeup in an iterative fashion (instead of
recursive) with bounded memory usage to prevent stack exhaustion.
qemu_co_queue_run_restart() is inlined into qemu_aio_coroutine_enter()
and the qemu_coroutine_enter() call is turned into a loop to avoid
recursion.
There is one change that is worth mentioning: Previously, when
coroutine A queued coroutine B, qemu_co_queue_run_restart() entered
coroutine B from coroutine A. If A was terminating then it would still
stay alive until B yielded. After this patch B is entered by A's parent
so that a A can be deleted immediately if it is terminating.
It is safe to make this change since B could never interact with A if it
was terminating anyway.
