Christoph Hellwig c16b5a2ca0 fully split aio_pool from BlockDriver
Now that we have a separate aio pool structure we can remove those
aio pool details from BlockDriver.

Every driver supporting AIO now needs to declare a static AIOPool
with the aiocb size and the cancellation method.  This cleans up the
current code considerably and will make it cleaner and more obvious
to support two different aio implementations behind a single
BlockDriver.

Alexander Graf 769ce76d0e Add HTTP protocol using curl v6
Currently Qemu can read from posix I/O and NBD. This patch adds a
third protocol to the game: HTTP.

In certain situations it can be useful to access HTTP data directly,
for example if you want to try out an http provided OS image, but
don't know if you want to download it yet.

Using this patch you can now try it on on the fly. Just use it like:

qemu -cdrom http://host/path/my.iso
