Daniel P. Berrange 161253e2d0 block: use 1 MB bounce buffers for crypto instead of 16KB
Using 16KB bounce buffers creates a significant performance
penalty for I/O to encrypted volumes on storage which high
I/O latency (rotating rust & network drives), because it
triggers lots of fairly small I/O operations.

On tests with rotating rust, and cache=none|directsync,
write speed increased from 2MiB/s to 32MiB/s, on a par
with that achieved by the in-kernel luks driver. With
other cache modes the in-kernel driver is still notably
faster because it is able to report completion of the
I/O request before any encryption is done, while the
in-QEMU driver must encrypt the data before completion.
