Right after main_loop ends, we release various things but keep iothread
alive. The latter is not prepared to the sudden change of resources.
Specifically, after bdrv_close_all(), virtio-scsi dataplane get a
surprise at the empty BlockBackend:
(gdb) bt
at /usr/src/debug/qemu-2.6.0/hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c:543
at /usr/src/debug/qemu-2.6.0/hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c:577
It is because the d->conf.blk->root is set to NULL, then
blk_get_aio_context() returns qemu_aio_context, whereas s->ctx is still
pointing to the iothread:
hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c:543:
if (s->dataplane_started) {
assert(blk_get_aio_context(d->conf.blk) == s->ctx);
}
To fix this, let's stop iothreads before doing bdrv_close_all().

The functions tpm_backend_thread_tpm_reset() and iothread_find()
are completely unused, let's remove them.

Make the IOThread struct definition public so objects can be embedded in
parent structs.

This is a stand-in for Michael Roth's QContext. I expect this to be
replaced once QContext is completed.
The IOThread object is an AioContext event loop thread. This patch adds
the concept of multiple event loop threads, allowing users to define
them.
When SMP guests run on SMP hosts it makes sense to instantiate multiple
IOThreads. This spreads event loop processing across multiple cores.
Note that additional patches are required to actually bind a device to
an IOThread.
[Andreas Färber <afaerber@suse.de> pointed out that the embedded parent
object instance should be called "parent_obj" and have a newline
afterwards. This patch has been changed to reflect this.
