This will be used to implement socket polling on Windows.
On Windows, select() and g_poll() are completely different;
sockets are polled with select() before calling g_poll,
and the g_poll must be nonblocking if select() says a
socket is ready.

So far, aio_poll's scheme was dispatch/poll/dispatch, where
the first dispatch phase was used only in the GSource case in
order to avoid a blocking poll. Earlier patches changed it to
dispatch/prepare/poll/dispatch, where prepare is aio_compute_timeout.
By making aio_dispatch public, we can remove the first dispatch
phase altogether, so that both aio_poll and the GSource use the same
prepare/poll/dispatch scheme.
This patch breaks the invariant that aio_poll(..., true) will not block
the first time it returns false. This used to be fundamental for
qemu_aio_flush's implementation as "while (qemu_aio_wait()) {}" but
no code in QEMU relies on this invariant anymore. The return value
of aio_poll() is now comparable with that of g_main_context_iteration.

Right now, QEMU invokes aio_bh_poll before the "poll" phase
of aio_poll. It is simpler to do it afterwards and skip the
"poll" phase altogether when the OS-dependent parts of AioContext
are invoked from GSource. This way, AioContext behaves more
similarly when used as a GSource vs. when used as stand-alone.
As a start, take bottom halves into account when computing the
poll timeout. If a bottom half is ready, do a non-blocking
poll. As a side effect, this makes idle bottom halves work
with aio_poll; an improvement, but not really an important
one since they are deprecated.

In many cases, the call to event_notifier_set in aio_notify is unnecessary.
In particular, if we are executing aio_dispatch, or if aio_poll is not
blocking, we know that we will soon get to the next loop iteration (if
necessary); the thread that hosts the AioContext's event loop does not
need any nudging.
The patch includes a Promela formal model that shows that this really
works and does not need any further complication such as generation
counts. It needs a memory barrier though.
The generation counts are not needed because any change to
ctx->dispatching after the memory barrier is okay for aio_notify.
If it changes from zero to one, it is the right thing to skip
event_notifier_set. If it changes from one to zero, the
event_notifier_set is unnecessary but harmless.

qemu_bh_schedule() is supposed to be thread-safe at least the first time
it is called. Unfortunately this is not quite true:
bh->scheduled = 1;
aio_notify(bh->ctx);
Since another thread may run the BH callback once it has been scheduled,
there is a race condition if the callback frees the BH before
aio_notify(bh->ctx) has a chance to run.

It can be useful to run an AioContext from a thread which normally does
not "own" the AioContext. For example, request draining can be
implemented by acquiring the AioContext and looping aio_poll() until all
requests have been completed.
The following pattern should work:
/* Event loop thread */
while (running) {
aio_context_acquire(ctx);
aio_poll(ctx, true);
aio_context_release(ctx);
}
/* Another thread */
aio_context_acquire(ctx);
bdrv_read(bs, 0x1000, buf, 1);
aio_context_release(ctx);
This patch implements aio_context_acquire() and aio_context_release().
Note that existing aio_poll() callers do not need to worry about
acquiring and releasing - it is only needed when multiple threads will
call aio_poll() on the same AioContext.

BH will be used outside big lock, so introduce lock to protect
between the writers, ie, bh's adders and deleter. The lock only
affects the writers and bh's callback does not take this extra lock.
Note that for the same AioContext, aio_bh_poll() can not run in
parallel yet.

This patch adds a ThreadPool to AioContext. It's possible that some
AioContext instances will never use the ThreadPool, so defer creation
until aio_get_thread_pool().
The reason why AioContext should have the ThreadPool is because the
ThreadPool is bound to a AioContext instance where the work item's
callback function is invoked. It doesn't make sense to keep the
ThreadPool pointer anywhere other than AioContext. For example,
block/raw-posix.c can get its AioContext's ThreadPool and submit work.
Special note about headers: I used struct ThreadPool in aio.h because
there is a circular dependency if aio.h includes thread-pool.h.

AioHandler already has a GPollFD so we can directly use its
events/revents.
Add the int pollfds_idx field to AioContext so we can map g_poll(3)
results back to AioHandlers.
Reuse aio_dispatch() to invoke handlers after g_poll(3).

Commit ed2aec4867f0d5f5de496bb765347b5d0cfe113d changed the return
value of aio_ctx_prepare from false to true when only idle bottom
halves are available. This broke PC old-style DMA, which uses them.
Fix this by making aio_ctx_prepare return true only when non-idle
bottom halves are scheduled to run.

Start introducing AioContext, which will let us remove globals from
aio.c/async.c, and introduce multiple I/O threads.
The bottom half functions now take an additional AioContext argument.
A bottom half is created with a specific AioContext that remains the
same throughout the lifetime. qemu_bh_new is just a wrapper that
uses a global context.

qemu may segfault when a BH handler first deletes a BH and then (possibly
indirectly) calls a nested qemu_bh_poll(). This is because the inner instance
frees the BH and deletes it from the list that the outer one processes.
This patch deletes BHs only in the outermost qemu_bh_poll instance.
Commit 7887f620 already tried to achieve the same, but it assumed that the BH
handler would only delete its own BH. With a nested qemu_bh_poll(), this isn't
guaranteed, so that commit wasn't enough. Hope this one fixes it for real.

The purpose of AsyncContexts was to protect qcow and qcow2 against reentrancy
during an emulated bdrv_read/write (which includes a qemu_aio_wait() call and
can run AIO callbacks of different requests if it weren't for AsyncContexts).
Now both qcow and qcow2 are protected by CoMutexes and AsyncContexts can be
removed.

Without this, qemu segfaults when a BH handler first deletes its BH and
then calls another function which involves a nested qemu_bh_poll() call.
This can be reproduced by generating an I/O error (e.g. with blkdebug) on
an IDE device and using rerror/werror=stop to stop the VM. When continuing
the VM, qemu segfaults.
