Make it possible to compile out the vhost-user-blk server. It is enabled
by default on Linux.
Note that vhost-user-server.c depends on libvhost-user, which requires
CONFIG_LINUX. The CONFIG_VHOST_USER dependency was erroneous since that
option controls vhost-user frontends (previously known as "master") and
not device backends (previously known as "slave").

Make it possible to specify the iothread where the export will run. By
default the block node can be moved to other AioContexts later and the
export will follow. The fixed-iothread option forces strict behavior
that prevents changing AioContext while the export is active. See the
QAPI docs for details.

Use the new QAPI block exports API instead of defining our own QOM
objects.
This is a large change because the lifecycle of VuBlockDev needs to
follow BlockExportDriver. QOM properties are replaced by QAPI options
objects.
VuBlockDev is renamed VuBlkExport and contains a BlockExport field.
Several fields can be dropped since BlockExport already has equivalents.
The file names and meson build integration will be adjusted in a future
patch. libvhost-user should probably be built as a static library that
is linked into QEMU instead of as a .c file that results in duplicate
compilation.
The new command-line syntax is:
$ qemu-storage-daemon \
--blockdev file,node-name=drive0,filename=test.img \
--export vhost-user-blk,node-name=drive0,id=export0,unix-socket=/tmp/vhost-user-blk.sock
Note that unix-socket is optional because we may wish to accept chardevs
too in the future.
Markus noted that supported address families are not explicit in the
QAPI schema. It is unlikely that support for more address families will
be added since file descriptor passing is required and few address
families support it. If a new address family needs to be added, then the
QAPI 'features' syntax can be used to advertize them.

The reference owned by the user/monitor that is created when adding the
export and dropped when removing it was tied to the 'exports' list in
nbd/server.c. Every block export will have a user reference, so move it
to the block export level and tie it to the 'block_exports' list in
block/export/export.c instead. This is necessary for introducing a QMP
command for removing exports.
Note that exports are present in block_exports even after the user has
requested shutdown. This is different from NBD's exports where exports
are immediately removed on a shutdown request, even if they are still in
the process of shutting down. In order to avoid that the user still
interacts with an export that is shutting down (and possibly removes it
a second time), we need to remember if the user actually still owns it.

We'll need an id to identify block exports in monitor commands. This
adds one.
Note that this is different from the 'name' option in the NBD server,
which is the externally visible export name. While block export ids need
to be unique in the whole process, export names must be unique only for
the same server. Different export types or (potentially in the future)
multiple NBD servers can have the same export name externally, but still
need different block export ids internally.

This adds a function to shut down all block exports, and another one to
shut down the block exports of a single type. The latter is used for now
when stopping the NBD server. As soon as we implement support for
multiple NBD servers, we'll need a per-server list of exports and it
will be replaced by a function using that.
As a side effect, the BlockExport layer has a list tracking all existing
exports now. closed_exports loses its only user and can go away.

Instead of letting the driver allocate and return the BlockExport
object, allocate it already in blk_exp_add() and pass it. This allows us
to initialise the generic part before calling into the driver so that
the driver can just use these values instead of having to parse the
options a second time.
For symmetry, move freeing the BlockExport to blk_exp_unref().

nbd-server-add tries to be convenient and adds two questionable
features that we don't want to share in block-export-add, even for NBD
exports:
1. When requesting a writable export of a read-only device, the export
is silently downgraded to read-only. This should be an error in the
context of block-export-add.
2. When using a BlockBackend name, unplugging the device from the guest
will automatically stop the NBD server, too. This may sometimes be
what you want, but it could also be very surprising. Let's keep
things explicit with block-export-add. If the user wants to stop the
export, they should tell us so.
Move these things into the nbd-server-add QMP command handler so that
they apply only there.
