This does the first part of the conversion to coroutines, by
wrapping bdrv_write implementations to take the mutex.
Drivers that implement bdrv_write rather than bdrv_co_writev can
then benefit from asynchronous operation (at least if the underlying
protocol supports it, which is not the case for raw-win32), even
though they still operate with a bounce buffer.

raw-win32 does not need the lock, because it cannot yield.
nbd also doesn't probably, but better be safe.

The big conversion of bdrv_read/write to coroutines caused the two
homonymous callbacks in BlockDriver to become reentrant. It goes
like this:
1) bdrv_read is now called in a coroutine, and calls bdrv_read or
bdrv_pread.
2) the nested bdrv_read goes through the fast path in bdrv_rw_co_entry;
3) in the common case when the protocol is file, bdrv_co_do_readv calls
bdrv_co_readv_em (and from here goes to bdrv_co_io_em), which yields
until the AIO operation is complete;
4) if bdrv_read had been called from a bottom half, the main loop
is free to iterate again: a device model or another bottom half
can then come and call bdrv_read again.
This applies to all four of read/write/flush/discard. It would also
apply to is_allocated, but it is not used from within coroutines:
besides qemu-img.c and qemu-io.c, which operate synchronously, the
only user is the monitor. Copy-on-read will introduce a use in the
block layer, and will require converting it.
The solution is "simply" to convert all drivers to coroutines! We
just need to add a CoMutex that is taken around affected operations.

nbd supports writing flags in bytes 24...27 of the header,
and uses that for the read-only flag. Add support for it
in qemu-nbd.

This patch allows to connect Qemu using NBD protocol to an nbd-server
using named exports.
For instance, if on the host "isoserver", in /etc/nbd-server/config, you have:
[generic]
[debian-500-ppc-netinst]
exportname = /ISO/debian-500-powerpc-netinst.iso
[Fedora-10-ppc-netinst]
exportname = /ISO/Fedora-10-ppc-netinst.iso
You can connect to it, using:
qemu -cdrom nbd:isoserver:exportname=debian-500-ppc-netinst
qemu -cdrom nbd:isoserver:exportname=Fedora-10-ppc-netinst
NOTE: you need at least nbd-server 2.9.18

Format drivers shouldn't need to bother with things like file names, but rather
just get an open BlockDriverState for the underlying protocol. This patch
introduces this behaviour for bdrv_open implementation. For protocols which
need to access the filename to open their file/device/connection/... a new
callback bdrv_file_open is introduced which doesn't get an underlying file
opened.
For now, also some of the more obscure formats use bdrv_file_open because they
open() the file themselves instead of using the block.c functions. They need to
be fixed in later patches.

The BDRV_O_CREAT option is unused inside qemu and partially duplicates
the bdrv_create method. Remove it, and the -C option to qemu-io which
isn't used in qemu-iotests anyway.
