qemu-img.c wants to count allocated file size of image. Previously it
counts a single bs->file by 'stat' or Window API. As VMDK introduces
multiple file support, the operation becomes format specific with
platform specific meanwhile.
The functions are moved to block/raw-{posix,win32}.c and qemu-img.c calls
bdrv_get_allocated_file_size to count the bs. And also added VMDK code
to count his own extents.

On Linux x86_64 host with 32bit userspace, running
qemu or even just "qemu-img create -f qcow2 some.img 1G"
causes a kernel warning:
ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(00005326){t:'S';sz:0} arg(7fffffff) on some.img
ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(801c0204){t:02;sz:28} arg(fff77350) on some.img
ioctl 00005326 is CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS,
ioctl 801c0204 is FDGETPRM.
The warning appears because the Linux compat-ioctl handler for these
ioctls only applies to block devices, while qemu also uses the ioctls on
plain files. Work around by calling fstat() the ensure the ioctls are
only used on block devices.

raw_pread_aligned() retries up to two times if the block device backs
a virtual CD-ROM (a drive with media=cdrom and if=ide, scsi, xen or
none). This makes no sense. Whether retrying reads can correct read
errors can only depend on what we're reading, not on how the result
gets used. We need to check what whether we're reading from a
physical CD-ROM or floppy here.
I doubt retrying is useful even then. Left for another day.
Impact:
* Virtual CD-ROM backed by host_cdrom behaves the same.
* Virtual CD-ROM backed by file or host_device no longer retries.
* A drive backed by host_cdrom now retries even if it's not a virtual
CD-ROM.
* Any drive backed by host_floppy now retries.
While there, clean up gratuitous use of goto.

Format drivers shouldn't need to bother with things like file names, but rather
just get an open BlockDriverState for the underlying protocol. This patch
introduces this behaviour for bdrv_open implementation. For protocols which
need to access the filename to open their file/device/connection/... a new
callback bdrv_file_open is introduced which doesn't get an underlying file
opened.
For now, also some of the more obscure formats use bdrv_file_open because they
open() the file themselves instead of using the block.c functions. They need to
be fixed in later patches.

We're running into various problems because the "raw" file access, which
is used internally by the various image formats is entangled with the
"raw" image format, which maps the VM view 1:1 to a file system.
This patch renames the raw file backends to the file protocol which
is treated like other protocols (e.g. nbd and http) and adds a new
"raw" image format which is just a wrapper around calls to the underlying
protocol.
The patch is surprisingly simple, besides changing the probing logical
in block.c to only look for image formats when using bdrv_open and
renaming of the old raw protocols to file there's almost nothing in there.
For creating images, a new bdrv_create_file is introduced which guesses the
protocol to use. This allows using qemu-img create -f raw (or just using the
default) for both files and host devices. Converting the other format drivers
to use this function to create their images is left for later patches.
The only issues still open are in the handling of the host devices.
Firstly in current qemu we can specifiy the host* format names
on various command line acceping images, but the new code can't
do that without adding some translation. Second the layering breaks
the no_zero_init flag in the BlockDriver used by qemu-img. I'm not
happy how this is done per-driver instead of per-state so I'll
prepare a separate patch to clean this up.
There's some more cleanup opportunity after this patch, e.g. using
separate lists and registration functions for image formats vs
protocols and maybe even host drivers, but this can be done at a
later stage.
Also there's a check for protocol in bdrv_open for the BDRV_O_SNAPSHOT
case that I don't quite understand, but which I fear won't work as
expected - possibly even before this patch.
Note that this patch requires various recent block patches from Kevin
and me, which should all be in his block queue.

raw_pread is hanging in an endless loop in such cases.

When using Linux AIO raw still falls back to POSIX AIO sometimes, so we should
initialize it.
Not initializing it happens to work if POSIX AIO is used by another drive, or
if the format is not specified (probing the format uses POSIX AIO) or by pure
luck (e.g. it doesn't seem to happen any more with qcow2 since we have re-added
synchronous qcow2 functions).

If we are flushing the caches for our image files we only care about the
data (including the metadata required for accessing it) but not things
like timestamp updates. So try to use fdatasync instead of fsync to
implement the flush operations.
Unfortunately many operating systems still do not support fdatasync,
so we add a qemu_fdatasync wrapper that uses fdatasync if available
as per the _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO feature macro or fsync otherwise.

Now that do have a nicer interface to work against we can add Linux native
AIO support. It's an extremly thing layer just setting up an iocb for
the io_submit system call in the submission path, and registering an
eventfd with the qemu poll handler to do complete the iocbs directly
from there.
This started out based on Anthony's earlier AIO patch, but after
estimated 42,000 rewrites and just as many build system changes
there's not much left of it.
To enable native kernel aio use the aio=native sub-command on the
drive command line. I have also added an option to qemu-io to
test the aio support without needing a guest.

Currently the raw-posix.c code contains a lot of knowledge about the
asynchronous I/O scheme that is mostly implemented in posix-aio-compat.c.
All this code does not really belong here and is getting a bit in the
way of implementing native AIO on Linux.
So instead move all the guts of the AIO implementation into
posix-aio-compat.c (which might need a better name, btw).
There's now a very small interface between the AIO providers and raw-posix.c:
- an init routine is called from raw_open_common to return an AIO context
for this drive. An AIO implementation may either re-use one context
for all drives, or use a different one for each as the Linux native
AIO support will do.
- an submit routine is called from the aio_reav/writev methods to submit
an AIO request
There are no indirect calls involved in this interface as we need to
decide which one to call manually. We will only call the Linux AIO native
init function if we were requested to by vl.c, and we will only call
the native submit function if we are asked to and the request is properly
aligned. That's also the reason why the alignment check actually does
the inverse move and now goes into raw-posix.c.
The old posix-aio-compat.h headers is removed now that most of it's
content is private to posix-aio-compat.c, and instead we add a new
block/raw-posix-aio.h headers is created containing only the tiny interface
between raw-posix.c and the AIO implementation.
