The stream block job must run in the BlockDriverState AioContext so that
it works with dataplane.
The basics of acquiring the AioContext are easy in blockdev.c.
The tricky part is the completion code which drops part of the backing
file chain. This must be done in the main loop where bdrv_unref() and
bdrv_close() are safe to call. Use block_job_defer_to_main_loop() to
achieve that.

On some image chains, QEMU may not always be able to resolve the
filenames properly, when updating the backing file of an image
after a block job.
For instance, certain relative pathnames may fail, or drives may
have been specified originally by file descriptor (e.g. /dev/fd/???),
or a relative protocol pathname may have been used.
In these instances, QEMU may lack the information to be able to make
the correct choice, but the user or management layer most likely does
have that knowledge.
With this extension to the block-stream api, the user is able to change
the backing file of the active layer as part of the block-stream
operation.
This allows the change to be 'safe', in the sense that if the attempt
to write the active image metadata fails, then the block-stream
operation returns failure, without disrupting the guest.
If a backing file string is not specified in the command, the backing
file string to use is determined in the same manner as it was
previously.

If a block driver has no file descriptors to monitor but there are still
active requests, it can return 1 from .io_flush(). This is used to spin
during synchronous I/O.
Stop relying on .io_flush() and instead check
QLIST_EMPTY(&bs->tracked_requests) to decide whether there are active
requests.
This is the first step in removing .io_flush() so that event loops no
longer need to have the concept of synchronous I/O. Eventually we may
be able to kill synchronous I/O completely by running everything in a
coroutine, but that is future work.
Note this patch moves bs->throttled_reqs initialization to bdrv_new() so
that bdrv_requests_pending(bs) can safely access it. In practice bs is
g_malloc0() so the memory is already zeroed but it's safer to initialize
the queue properly.
We also need to fix up block/stream.c:close_unused_images() to prevent
traversing a dangling pointer while it rearranges the backing file
chain. This is necessary since the new bdrv_drain_all() traverses the
backing file chain.

It is possible to create an image that is larger than its backing file.
Reading beyond the end of the backing file produces zeroes if no writes
have been made to those sectors in the image file.
This patch finishes streaming early when the end of the backing file is
reached. Without this patch the block job hangs and continually tries
to stream the first sectors beyond the end of the backing file.
To reproduce the hung block job bug:
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 backing.qcow2 128M
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=backing.qcow2 image.qcow2 6G
$ qemu -drive if=virtio,cache=none,file=image.qcow2
(qemu) block_stream virtio0
(qemu) info block-jobs

Unallocated sectors should really never be accessed by the guest,
so there's no need to copy them during the streaming process.
If they are read by the guest during streaming, guest-initiated
copy-on-read will copy them (we're in the base == NULL case, which
enables copy on read). If they are read after we disconnect the
image from the base, they will read as zeroes anyway.

This fixes inability to make progress in streaming if the quota is set
to less than the amount of data that an I/O operation has to write.
In this case, limit->dispatched + n will always be above the quota and,
due to the "goto retry" to recheck cancellation and allocation, streaming
will livelock.
This can be reproduced with "block_job_set_speed ide0-hd0 1b". Of course,
with this patch the requested limit will not be obeyed. That could be
done with another patch that caps is_allocated's n argument by the slice
quota.

The limitation on not having I/O after cancellation cannot really be
kept. Even streaming has a very small race window where you could
cancel a job and have it report completion. If this window is hit,
bdrv_change_backing_file() will yield and possibly cause accesses to
dangling pointers etc.
So, let's just assume that we cannot know exactly what will happen
after the coroutine has set busy to false. We can set a very lax
condition:
- if we cancel the job, the coroutine won't set it to false again
(and hence will not call co_sleep_ns again).
- block_job_cancel_sync will wait for the coroutine to exit, which
pretty much ensures no race.
Instead, we track the coroutine that executes the job and put very
strict conditions on what to do while it is quiescent (busy = false).
First of all, the coroutine must never set busy = false while the job
has been cancelled. Second, the coroutine can be reentered arbitrarily
while it is quiescent, so you cannot really do anything but co_sleep_ns at
that time. This condition is obeyed by the block_job_sleep_ns function.

Streaming can issue I/O while qcow2_close is running. This causes the
L2 caches to become very confused or, alternatively, could cause a
segfault when the streaming coroutine is reentered after closing its
block device. The fix is to cancel streaming jobs when closing their
underlying device.
The cancellation must be synchronous, on the other hand qemu_aio_wait
will not restart a coroutine that is sleeping in co_sleep. So add
a flag saying whether streaming has in-flight I/O. If the busy flag
is false, the coroutine is quiescent and, when cancelled, will not
issue any new I/O.
This protects streaming against closing, but not against deleting.
We have a reference count protecting us against concurrent deletion,
but I still added an assertion to ensure nothing bad happens.
