With the new support for EventNotifiers in the AIO event loop, we
can hook a completion port to every opened file and use asynchronous
I/O on them.
Wine's support is extremely inefficient, also because it really does
the I/O synchronously on regular files. (!) But it works, and it is
good to keep the Win32 and POSIX ports as similar as possible.

The Win32 implementation will only accept EventNotifiers, thus a few
drivers are disabled under Windows. EventNotifiers are a good match
for the GSource implementation, too, because the Win32 port of glib
allows to place their HANDLEs in a GPollFD.

This patch adds the implementation of a new job that mirrors a disk to
a new image while letting the guest continue using the old image.
The target is treated as a "black box" and data is copied from the
source to the target in the background. This can be used for several
purposes, including storage migration, continuous replication, and
observation of the guest I/O in an external program. It is also a
first step in replacing the inefficient block migration code that is
part of QEMU.
The job is possibly never-ending, but it is logically structured into
two phases: 1) copy all data as fast as possible until the target
first gets in sync with the source; 2) keep target in sync and
ensure that reopening to the target gets a correct (full) copy
of the source data.
The second phase is indicated by the progress in "info block-jobs"
reporting the current offset to be equal to the length of the file.
When the job is cancelled in the second phase, QEMU will run the
job until the source is clean and quiescent, then it will report
successful completion of the job.
In other words, the BLOCK_JOB_CANCELLED event means that the target
may _not_ be consistent with a past state of the source; the
BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED event means that the target is consistent with
a past state of the source. (Note that it could already happen
that management lost the race against QEMU and got a completion
event instead of cancellation).
It is not yet possible to complete the job and switch over to the target
disk. The next patches will fix this and add many refinements to the
basic idea introduced here. These include improved error management,
some tunable knobs and performance optimizations.

This adds the live commit coroutine. This iteration focuses on the
commit only below the active layer, and not the active layer itself.
The behaviour is similar to block streaming; the sectors are walked
through, and anything that exists above 'base' is committed back down
into base. At the end, intermediate images are deleted, and the
chain stitched together. Images are restored to their original open
flags upon completion.

This patch adds gluster as the new block backend in QEMU. This gives
QEMU the ability to boot VM images from gluster volumes. Its already
possible to boot from VM images on gluster volumes using FUSE mount, but
this patchset provides the ability to boot VM images from gluster volumes
by by-passing the FUSE layer in gluster. This is made possible by
using libgfapi routines to perform IO on gluster volumes directly.
VM Image on gluster volume is specified like this:
file=gluster[+transport]://[server[:port]]/volname/image[?socket=...]
'gluster' is the protocol.
'transport' specifies the transport type used to connect to gluster
management daemon (glusterd). Valid transport types are
tcp, unix and rdma. If a transport type isn't specified, then tcp
type is assumed.
'server' specifies the server where the volume file specification for
the given volume resides. This can be either hostname, ipv4 address
or ipv6 address. ipv6 address needs to be within square brackets [ ].
If transport type is 'unix', then 'server' field should not be specifed.
The 'socket' field needs to be populated with the path to unix domain
socket.
'port' is the port number on which glusterd is listening. This is optional
and if not specified, QEMU will send 0 which will make gluster to use the
default port. If the transport type is unix, then 'port' should not be
specified.
'volname' is the name of the gluster volume which contains the VM image.
'image' is the path to the actual VM image that resides on gluster volume.
Examples:
file=gluster://1.2.3.4/testvol/a.img
file=gluster+tcp://1.2.3.4/testvol/a.img
file=gluster+tcp://1.2.3.4:24007/testvol/dir/a.img
file=gluster+tcp://[1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8]/testvol/dir/a.img
file=gluster+tcp://[1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8]:24007/testvol/dir/a.img
file=gluster+tcp://server.domain.com:24007/testvol/dir/a.img
file=gluster+unix:///testvol/dir/a.img?socket=/tmp/glusterd.socket
file=gluster+rdma://1.2.3.4:24007/testvol/a.img
