Instead of using the field 'readonly' of the BlockDriverState struct for passing the request,
pass the request in the flags parameter to the function.

We have code for a quite a few block formats. While I trust that all
of these formats are useful at least for some people in some
circumstances, some of them are of a kind that friends don't let
friends use in production.
This patch provides an optional block format whitelist, default off.
If a whitelist is configured with --block-drv-whitelist, QEMU proper
can use only whitelisted formats. Other programs, like qemu-img, are
not affected.
Drivers for formats off the whitelist still participate in format
probing, to ensure all programs probe exactly the same. Without that,
QEMU proper would be prone to treat images with a format off the
whitelist as raw when the image's format is probed.

Problem: Our file sys-queue.h is a copy of the BSD file, but there are
some additions and it's not entirely compatible. Because of that, there have
been conflicts with system headers on BSD systems. Some hacks have been
introduced in the commits 15cc923584,
f40d753718,
96555a96d7 and
3990d09adf but the fixes were fragile.
Solution: Avoid the conflict entirely by renaming the functions and the
file. Revert the previous hacks.

First step cleaning up the drives handling. This one does nothing but
removing drives_table[], still it became seriously big.
drive_get_index() is gone and is replaced by drives_get() which hands
out DriveInfo pointers instead of a table index. This needs adaption in
*tons* of places all over.
The drives are now maintained as linked list.

This patch adds a block device backend driver to qemu. It is a pure
userspace implemention using the gntdev interface. It uses "qdisk" as
backend name in xenstore so it doesn't interfere with the other existing
backends (blkback aka "vbd" and tapdisk aka "tap").
