When we cancel an AIO request that is already being processed by
aio_thread, qemu_paio_cancel should return QEMU_PAIO_NOTCANCELED as long
as aio_thread isn't done with this request. But as the latter currently
updates aiocb->ret after every block of the request, we may report
QEMU_PAIO_ALLDONE too early.
Futhermore, in case some zero-length request should have been queued,
aiocb->ret is never set to != -EINPROGRESS and callers like
raw_aio_cancel could get stuck in an endless loop.
Fix those issues by updating aiocb->ret _after_ the request has been
fully processed. This also simplifies the locking.

glibc implements posix-aio as a thread pool and imposes a number of limitations.
1) it limits one request per-file descriptor. we hack around this by dup()'ing
file descriptors which is hideously ugly
2) it's impossible to add new interfaces and we need a vectored read/write
operation to properly support a zero-copy API.
What has been suggested to me by glibc folks, is to implement whatever new
interfaces we want and then it can eventually be proposed for standardization.
This requires that we implement our own posix-aio implementation though.
This patch implements posix-aio using pthreads. It immediately eliminates the
need for fd pooling.
It performs at least as well as the current posix-aio code (in some
circumstances, even better).
