this patch adds a efficient encoding for zero blocks by
adding a new flag indicating a block is completely zero.
additionally bdrv_write_zeros() is used at the destination
to efficiently write these zeroes. depending on the implementation
this avoids that the destination target gets fully provisioned.

Force auto-convegence of live migration
Add 'auto-converge' migration capability

If bdrv_flush_all() returns an error, there is an inconsistency in the
view of an image file between the source and the destination host.
Completing the migration would lead to corruption. Better abort
migration in this case.
To reproduce this case, try the following (ensures that there is
something to flush, and then fails that flush):
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 test.qcow2 1G
$ cat blkdebug.cfg
[inject-error]
event = "flush_to_os"
errno = "5"
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -hda blkdebug:blkdebug.cfg:test.qcow2 -monitor stdio
(qemu) qemu-io ide0-hd0 "write 0 4k"
(qemu) migrate ...

This capability allows you to disable dynamic chunk registration
for better throughput on high-performance links.
For example, using an 8GB RAM virtual machine with all 8GB of memory in
active use and the VM itself is completely idle using a 40 gbps infiniband link:
1. x-rdma-pin-all disabled total time: approximately 7.5 seconds @ 9.5 Gbps
2. x-rdma-pin-all enabled total time: approximately 4 seconds @ 26 Gbps
These numbers would of course scale up to whatever size virtual machine
you have to migrate using RDMA.
Enabling this feature does *not* have any measurable affect on
migration *downtime*. This is because, without this feature, all of the
memory will have already been registered already in advance during
the bulk round and does not need to be re-registered during the successive
iteration rounds.

This makes it possible to do blocking writes directly to the socket,
with no buffer in the middle. For RAM, only the migration_bitmap_sync()
call needs the iothread lock. For block migration, it is needed by
the block layer (including bdrv_drain_all and dirty bitmap access),
but because some code is shared between iterate and complete, all of
mig_save_device_dirty is run with the lock taken.
In the savevm case, the iterate callback runs within the big lock.
This is annoying because it complicates the rules. Luckily we do not
need to do anything about it: the RAM iterate callback does not need
the iothread lock, and block migration never runs during savevm.

Completion of migration is currently done with a "nested" loop that
invokes buffered_flush: migrate_fd_completed is called by
buffered_file_thread, which calls migrate_fd_cleanup, which calls
buffered_close (via qemu_fclose), which flushes the buffer.
Simplify this, by reusing the buffered_flush call of buffered_file_thread.
Then if qemu_savevm_state_complete was called, and the buffer is empty
(including the QEMUFile buffer, for which we need the previous patch), we
are done.

The incoming migration is processed in a coroutine and uses an fd read
handler to enter the yielded coroutine when data becomes available.
The read handler was set too broadly, so that spurious coroutine entries
were be triggered if other coroutine users yielded (like the block
layer's bdrv_write() function).
Install the fd read only only when yielding for more data to become
available. This prevents spurious coroutine entries which break code
that assumes only a specific set of places can re-enter the coroutine.
This patch fixes crashes in block/raw-posix.c that are triggered with
"migrate -b" when qiov becomes a dangling pointer due to a spurious
coroutine entry that frees qiov early.
