We only had two callers to nbd_export_new; qemu-nbd.c always
passed a valid offset/length pair (because it already checked
the file length, to ensure that offset was in bounds), while
blockdev-nbd.c always passed 0/-1. Then nbd_export_new reduces
the size to a multiple of BDRV_SECTOR_SIZE (can only happen
when offset is not sector-aligned, since bdrv_getlength()
currently rounds up) (someday, it would be nice to have
byte-accurate lengths - but not today).
However, I'm finding it easier to work with the code if we are
consistent on having both callers pass in a valid length, and
just assert that things are sane in nbd_export_new, meaning
that no negative values were passed, and that offset+size does
not exceed 63 bits (as that really is a fundamental limit to
later operations, whether we use off_t or uint64_t).
