Add 'nocow' option so that users could have a chance to set NOCOW flag to
newly created files. It's useful on btrfs file system to enhance performance.
Btrfs has low performance when hosting VM images, even more when the guest
in those VM are also using btrfs as file system. One way to mitigate this bad
performance is to turn off COW attributes on VM files. Generally, there are
two ways to turn off NOCOW on btrfs: a) by mounting fs with nodatacow, then
all newly created files will be NOCOW. b) per file. Add the NOCOW file
attribute. It could only be done to empty or new files.
This patch tries the second way, according to the option, it could add NOCOW
per file.
For most block drivers, since the create file step is in raw-posix.c, so we
can do setting NOCOW flag ioctl in raw-posix.c only.
But there are some exceptions, like block/vpc.c and block/vdi.c, they are
creating file by calling qemu_open directly. For them, do the same setting
NOCOW flag ioctl work in them separately.
[Fixed up 082.out due to the new 'nocow' creation option

This adds checks to make sure that max_table_entries and block_size

unbounded memory allocation, or invalid memory accesses.
Also, the allocation of the pagetable is changed from g_malloc0()

The VHD specification allows for up to a 2 TB disk size. The current
implementation in qemu emulates EIDE and ATA-2 hardware which only allows
for up to 127 GB. This disk size limitation can be overridden by allowing
up to 255 heads instead of the normal 4 bit limitation of 16. Doing so
allows disk images to be created of up to nearly 2 TB. This change does
not violate the VHD format specification nor does it change how smaller
disks (ie, <=127GB) are defined.
[Charles Arnold also writes: "In analyzing a 160 GB VHD fixed disk image
created on Windows 2008 R2, it appears that MS is also ignoring the CHS
values in the footer geometry field in whatever driver they use for
accessing the image. The CHS values are set at 65535,16,255 which
obviously doesn't represent an image size of 160 GB." -- Stefan]

The geometry calculation algorithm from the VHD spec rounds the image

currently only supports Dynamic disks. This patch adds support for
the Fixed Disk format.
Usage:
Example 1: qemu-img create -f vpc -o type=fixed <filename> [size]
Example 2: qemu-img convert -O vpc -o type=fixed <input filename> <output filename>
While it is also allowed to specify '-o type=dynamic', the default disk type
remains Dynamic and is what is used when the type is left unspecified.

The big conversion of bdrv_read/write to coroutines caused the two
homonymous callbacks in BlockDriver to become reentrant. It goes
like this:
1) bdrv_read is now called in a coroutine, and calls bdrv_read or
bdrv_pread.
2) the nested bdrv_read goes through the fast path in bdrv_rw_co_entry;
3) in the common case when the protocol is file, bdrv_co_do_readv calls
bdrv_co_readv_em (and from here goes to bdrv_co_io_em), which yields
until the AIO operation is complete;
4) if bdrv_read had been called from a bottom half, the main loop
is free to iterate again: a device model or another bottom half
can then come and call bdrv_read again.
This applies to all four of read/write/flush/discard. It would also
apply to is_allocated, but it is not used from within coroutines:
besides qemu-img.c and qemu-io.c, which operate synchronously, the
only user is the monitor. Copy-on-read will introduce a use in the
block layer, and will require converting it.
The solution is "simply" to convert all drivers to coroutines! We
just need to add a CoMutex that is taken around affected operations.

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.

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
