Daniel P. Berrangé ab458750d0 block: better document SSH host key fingerprint checking
The docs still illustrate host key fingerprint checking using the old
md5 hashes which are considered insecure and obsolete. Change it to
illustrate using a sha256 hash. Also show how to extract the hash
value from the known_hosts file.

Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy 33fa2222eb block: introduce preallocate filter
It's intended to be inserted between format and protocol nodes to
preallocate additional space (expanding protocol file) on writes
crossing EOF. It improves performance for file-systems with slow
allocation.

Paolo Bonzini bccb135e54 docs/system: put qemu-block-drivers body in an included file
This removes the "only" directives, and lets us use the conventional
"DESCRIPTION" section in the manpage.

This temporarily drops the qemu-block-drivers documentation
from the system manual, but it will be put back (in the
right place in the toctree) in a later commit.
