This patch adds test cases for attaching the backing chain to a mirror
job target right before finalising the job, where the image is in a
non-mainloop AioContext (i.e. the backing chain needs to be moved to the
AioContext of the mirror target).
This requires switching the test case from virtio-blk to virtio-scsi
because virtio-blk only actually starts using the iothreads when the
guest driver initialises the device (which never happens in a test case
without a guest OS). virtio-scsi always keeps its block nodes in the
AioContext of the the requested iothread without guest interaction.

The newly tested scenario is a common live storage migration scenario:
The target node is opened without a backing file so that the active
layer is mirrored while its backing chain can be copied in the
background.
The backing chain should be attached to the mirror target node when
finalising the job, just before switching the users of the source node
to the new copy (at which point the mirror job still has a reference to
the node). drive-mirror did this automatically, but with blockdev-mirror
this is the job of the QMP client.
This patch adds test cases for two ways to achieve the desired result,
using either x-blockdev-reopen or blockdev-snapshot.
