I'll use it with block backends shortly, and the name is going to fit
badly there. It's a block layer thing anyway, not just a block driver
thing.

Dragging block_int.h into a header is *not* nice. Fortunately, this
is the only offender.

Now that each AioContext has a ThreadPool and the main loop AioContext
can be fetched with bdrv_get_aio_context(), we can eliminate the concept
of a global thread pool from thread-pool.c.
The submit functions must take a ThreadPool* argument.
block/raw-posix.c and block/raw-win32.c use
aio_get_thread_pool(bdrv_get_aio_context(bs)) to fetch the main loop's
ThreadPool.
tests/test-thread-pool.c must be updated to reflect the new
thread_pool_submit() function prototypes.

ThreadPool is tied to an AioContext through its event notifier, which
dictates in which AioContext the work item's callback function will be
invoked.
In order to support multiple AioContexts we need to support multiple
ThreadPool instances.
This patch adds the new/free functions. The free function deserves
special attention because it quiesces remaining worker threads. This
requires a new condition variable and a "stopping" flag to let workers
know they should terminate once idle.
We never needed to do this before since the global threadpool was not
explicitly destroyed until process termination.
Also stash the AioContext pointer in ThreadPool so that we can call
aio_set_event_notifier() in thread_pool_free(). We didn't need to hold
onto AioContext previously since there was no free function.
