This patch improves the test by attaching a different number of drives
to the VM and putting them in the same throttling group. The test
verifies that the I/O is evenly distributed among all members of the
group, and that the limits are enforced.
By default the test is repeated 3 times with 1, 2 and 3 drives, but
the maximum number of simultaneous drives is configurable.

This case utilizes qemu-io command "aio_{read,write} -q" to verify the
effectiveness of IO throttling options.
It's implemented by driving the vm timer from qtest protocol, so the
throttling timers are signaled with determinied time duration. Then we
verify the completed IO requests are within 10% error of bps and iops
limits.
"null" protocol is used as the disk backend so that no actual disk IO is
performed on host, this will make the blockstats much more
deterministic. Both "null-aio" and "null-co" are covered, which is also
a simple cross validation test for the driver code.
