dede4188cc block/vpc: Fix conversion from size to disk geometry
The VHD algorithm calculates a disk geometry
which is usually smaller than the requested size.

QEMU tried to round up but failed for certain sizes:

qemu-img create -f vpc disk.vpc 9437184
would create an image with 9435136 bytes
(which is too small for qemu-img convert).

Instead of hacking the geometry algorithm, the patch
increases the number of sectors until we get enough
sectors.

66f82ceed6 block: Open the underlying image file in generic code
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.

cc2040f8c2 Fix spelling in comment.
The company which made Virtual PC was Connectix.
They use the magic string "conectix" in their disk images.

5ec4d682d2 eliminate errors about unused results in block/vpc.c
These errors come up when compiling with gcc-4.3.3 and some older headers:

/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c: In function 'vpc_create':
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:514: error: value computed is not used
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:516: error: value computed is not used
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:517: error: value computed is not used
/scratch/froydnj/qemu.git/block/vpc.c:566: error: value computed is not used

Use memcpy to copy the strings instead of strncpy.

db08adf526 qemu-img: Print available options with -o ?
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 ?

0e7e1989f7 Convert all block drivers to new bdrv_create
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.
