This patch adds a small help text to each of the options in the block drivers
which can be displayed by using qemu-img create -f fmt -o ?

Now that we have a separate aio pool structure we can remove those
aio pool details from BlockDriver.
Every driver supporting AIO now needs to declare a static AIOPool
with the aiocb size and the cancellation method. This cleans up the
current code considerably and will make it cleaner and more obvious
to support two different aio implementations behind a single
BlockDriver.

Don't write each single changed refcount block entry to the disk after it is
written, but update all entries of the block and write all of them at once.

This is a preparation patch with no functional changes. It moves the allocation
of new refcounts block to a new function and makes update_cluster_refcount (for
one cluster) call update_refcount (for multiple clusters) instead the other way
round.

There is only one (internal) user left and it can be switched to the normal

Add an option to specify the cluster size of a newly created qcow2 image.
Default is 4k which is the same value that was hard-coded before.

Now we can make use of the newly introduced option structures. Instead of
having bdrv_create carry more and more parameters (which are format specific in
most cases), just pass a option structure as defined by the driver itself.
bdrv_create2() contains an emulation of the old interface to simplify the
transition.
