33fa2222eb block: introduce preallocate filter
It's intended to be inserted between format and protocol nodes to
preallocate additional space (expanding protocol file) on writes
crossing EOF. It improves performance for file-systems with slow
allocation.

bccb135e54 docs/system: put qemu-block-drivers body in an included file
This removes the "only" directives, and lets us use the conventional
"DESCRIPTION" section in the manpage.

This temporarily drops the qemu-block-drivers documentation
from the system manual, but it will be put back (in the
right place in the toctree) in a later commit.
