block: Clarify locking rules for bdrv_open(_inherit)()

Browse Source 
These functions specify that the caller must hold the "@filename
AioContext lock". This doesn't make sense, file names don't have an
AioContext. New BlockDriverStates always start in the main AioContext,
so this is what we really need here.
