Upstream NBD protocol recently added the ability to efficiently
write zeroes without having to send the zeroes over the wire,
along with a flag to control whether the client wants a hole.
The generic block code takes care of falling back to the obvious
write of lots of zeroes if we return -ENOTSUP because the server
does not have WRITE_ZEROES.
Ideally, since NBD_CMD_WRITE_ZEROES does not involve any data
over the wire, we want to support transactions that are much
larger than the normal 32M limit imposed on NBD_CMD_WRITE. But
the server may still have a limit smaller than UINT_MAX, so
until experimental NBD protocol additions for advertising various
command sizes is finalized (see [1], [2]), for now we just stick to
the same limits as normal writes.

Our coding convention prefers CamelCase names, and we already
have other existing structs with NBDFoo naming. Let's be
consistent, before later patches add even more structs.

It's better to use consistent capitalization of the namespace
used for NBD functions; we have more instances of NBD* than
Nbd*.

NBD is using the CoMutex in a way that wasn't anticipated. For example, if there are
N(N=26, MAX_NBD_REQUESTS=16) nbd write requests, so we will invoke nbd_client_co_pwritev
N times.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
time request Actions
1 1 in_flight=1, Coroutine=C1
2 2 in_flight=2, Coroutine=C2
...
15 15 in_flight=15, Coroutine=C15
16 16 in_flight=16, Coroutine=C16, free_sema->holder=C16, mutex->locked=true
17 17 in_flight=16, Coroutine=C17, queue C17 into free_sema->queue
18 18 in_flight=16, Coroutine=C18, queue C18 into free_sema->queue
...
26 N in_flight=16, Coroutine=C26, queue C26 into free_sema->queue
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once nbd client recieves request No.16' reply, we will re-enter C16. It's ok, because
it's equal to 'free_sema->holder'.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
time request Actions
27 16 in_flight=15, Coroutine=C16, free_sema->holder=C16, mutex->locked=false
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then nbd_coroutine_end invokes qemu_co_mutex_unlock what will pop coroutines from
free_sema->queue's head and enter C17. More free_sema->holder is C17 now.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
time request Actions
28 17 in_flight=16, Coroutine=C17, free_sema->holder=C17, mutex->locked=true
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In above scenario, we only recieves request No.16' reply. As time goes by, nbd client will
almostly recieves replies from requests 1 to 15 rather than request 17 who owns C17. In this
case, we will encounter assert "mutex->holder == self" failed since Kevin's commit 0e438cdc
"coroutine: Let CoMutex remember who holds it". For example, if nbd client recieves request
No.15' reply, qemu will stop unexpectedly:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
time request Actions
29 15(most case) in_flight=15, Coroutine=C15, free_sema->holder=C17, mutex->locked=false
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Per Paolo's suggestion "The simplest fix is to change it to CoQueue, which is like a condition
variable", this patch replaces CoMutex with CoQueue.

Rather than asserting that nbdflags is within range, just give
it the correct type to begin with :) nbdflags corresponds to
the per-export portion of NBD Protocol "transmission flags", which
is 16 bits in response to NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME and NBD_OPT_GO.
Furthermore, upstream NBD has never passed the global flags to
the kernel via ioctl(NBD_SET_FLAGS) (the ioctl was first
introduced in NBD 2.9.22; then a latent bug in NBD 3.1 actually
tried to OR the global flags with the transmission flags, with
the disaster that the addition of NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES in 3.9
caused all earlier NBD 3.x clients to treat every export as
read-only; NBD 3.10 and later intentionally clip things to 16
bits to pass only transmission flags). Qemu should follow suit,
since the current two global flags (NBD_FLAG_FIXED_NEWSTYLE
and NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES) have no impact on the kernel's behavior
during transmission.

The NBD protocol doesn't have any notion of sectors, so it is
a fairly easy conversion to use byte-based read and write.

Another step towards killing off sector-based block APIs.
While at it, call directly into nbd-client.c instead of having
a pointless trivial wrapper in nbd.c.

Now that the block layer honors per-bds FUA support, we don't
have to duplicate the fallback flush at the NBD layer. The
static function nbd_co_writev_flags() is no longer needed, and
the driver can just directly use nbd_client_co_writev().

The NBD server already used to send a FUA flag when the writethrough
mode was set. This code was a remnant from the times where protocol
drivers actually had to implement writethrough modes. Since nowadays the
block layer sends flushes in writethrough mode and non-root nodes are
always writeback, this was mostly dead code - only mostly because if NBD
was configured to be used without a format, we sent _both_ FUA and an
explicit flush afterwards, which makes the code not technically dead,
but useless overhead.
This patch changes the code so that the block layer's FUA flag is
recognised and translated into a NBD FUA flag. The additional flush is
avoided now.

This modifies the NBD driver so that it is possible to request
use of TLS. This is done by providing the 'tls-creds' parameter
with the ID of a previously created QCryptoTLSCreds object.
For example
$QEMU -object tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,endpoint=client,\
dir=/home/berrange/security/qemutls \
-drive driver=nbd,host=localhost,port=9000,tls-creds=tls0
The client will drop the connection if the NBD server does not
provide TLS.

This converts the NBD block driver client to use the QIOChannelSocket
class for initial connection setup. The NbdClientSession struct has
two pointers, one to the master QIOChannelSocket providing the raw
data channel, and one to a QIOChannel which is the current channel
used for I/O. Initially the two point to the same object, but when
TLS support is added, they will point to different objects.
The qemu-img & qemu-io tools now need to use MODULE_INIT_QOM to
ensure the QIOChannel object classes are registered. The qemu-nbd
tool already did this.
In this initial conversion though, all I/O is still actually done
using the raw POSIX sockets APIs.

Before this patch, the "opaque" pointer in an NBD BDS points to a
BDRVNBDState, which contains an NbdClientSession object, which in turn
contains a pointer to the BDS. This pointer may become invalid due to
bdrv_swap(), so drop it, and instead pass the BDS directly to the
nbd-client.c functions which then retrieve the NbdClientSession object
from there.

This patch makes use of the Error object for nbd_receive_negotiate() so
that errors during negotiation look nicer.
Furthermore, this patch adds an additional error message if the received
magic was wrong, but would be correct for the other protocol version,
respectively: So if an export name was specified, but the NBD server
magic corresponds to an old handshake, this condition is explicitly
signaled to the user, and vice versa.
As these messages are now part of the "Could not open image" error
message, additional filtering has to be employed in iotest 083, which
this patch does as well.

Drop the assumption that we're using the main AioContext. Convert
qemu_aio_set_fd_handler() calls to aio_set_fd_handler().
The .bdrv_detach/attach_aio_context() interfaces also need to be
implemented to move the socket fd handler from the old to the new
AioContext.
