The HMP command 'qemu-io' is a bit tricky because it wants to work on
the original BlockBackend, but additional permissions could be required.
The details are explained in a comment in the code, but in summary, just
request whatever permissions the current qemu-io command needs.

qemu-io should behave like a guest, therefore it should use BlockBackend
to access the block layer.
There are a couple of places where that is infeasible: First, the
bdrv_debug_* functions could theoretically be mirrored in the
BlockBackend, but since these are functions internal to the block layer,
they should not be visible externally (qemu-io as a test tool is exempt
from this).
Second, bdrv_get_info() and bdrv_get_specific_info() work on a single
BDS alone, therefore they should stay BDS-specific.
Third, bdrv_is_allocated() mainly works on a single BDS as well. Some
data may be passed through from the BDS's file (if sectors which are
apparently allocated in the file are not really allocated there but just
zero).
[Fixed conflicts around block_acct_start() usage from Fam Zheng's
"qemu-io: Account IO by aio_read and aio_write" commit. Use
BlockBackend and blk_get_stats() instead of BlockDriverState.

Smatch complains about several global symbols which should be local.
Add the missing 'static' attributes and move the 'extern' declaration
of variable qemuio_misalign to qemu-io.h. This variable also changes
the type from 'int' to 'bool' which better fits documents its use.
