Add an Error ** parameter to BlockDriver.bdrv_open and
BlockDriver.bdrv_file_open to allow more specific error messages.

The .io_flush() handler no longer exists and has no users. Drop the
io_flush argument to aio_set_fd_handler() and related functions.
The AioFlushEventNotifierHandler and AioFlushHandler typedefs are no
longer used and are dropped too.

If the remote is a regular file, set it to true (ie. reads of
uninitialized areas in a newly created file will return zeroes).
If we can't prove that, return false (a safe default).
Tested by adding a debugging print statement [not part of this commit]
and creating a remote file and a remote block device:
$ ./qemu-img create ssh://localhost/tmp/new 100M
Formatting 'ssh://localhost/tmp/new', fmt=raw size=104857600
filename ssh://localhost/tmp/new: has_zero_init = 1
$ sudo lvcreate -L 1G -n tmp /dev/fedora
Logical volume "tmp" created
$ ./qemu-img create ssh://localhost/dev/fedora/tmp 1G
Formatting 'ssh://localhost/dev/fedora/tmp', fmt=raw size=1073741824
filename ssh://localhost/dev/fedora/tmp: has_zero_init = 0

libssh2_sftp_fsync is an extension to libssh2 to support fsync(2) over
sftp, which is itself an extension of OpenSSH.
If both libssh2 and the ssh daemon support it, this will allow
bdrv_flush_to_disk to commit changes through to disk on the remote
server.

qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=ssh://hostname/some/image
QEMU will ssh into 'hostname' and open '/some/image' which is made
available as a standard block device.
You can specify a username (ssh://user@host/...) and/or a port number
(ssh://host:port/...). You can also use an alternate syntax using
properties (file.user, file.host, file.port, file.path).
Current limitations:
- Authentication must be done without passwords or passphrases, using
ssh-agent. Other authentication methods are not supported.
- Uses a single connection, instead of concurrent AIO with multiple
SSH connections.
This is implemented using libssh2 on the client side. The server just
requires a regular ssh daemon with sftp-server support. Most ssh
daemons on Unix/Linux systems will work out of the box.
