bdrv_aio_* must not call the callback before returning to its caller. In qcow,
this could happen in some error cases. This starts the real requests processing
in a BH to avoid this situation.

This patch is similar to 171e3d6b99
which fixed qcow2:
Returning -EIO is far from optimal, but at least it's an error code.
In addition to read/write failures, -EIO is also returned when
decompress_cluster failed.

All drivers use bs->file instead of s->hd for quite a while now, so it's time
to remove s->hd.

This changes bdrv_flush to return 0 on success and -errno in case of failure.
It's a requirement for implementing proper error handle in users of bdrv_flush.

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.

Now that we do not have to flush the backing device anymore implementing
the bdrv_aio_flush method for image formats is trivial.

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.

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.
