Now that task objects have a directly associated error,
there's no need for an an Error **errp parameter to
the QIOTask thread worker function. It already has a
QIOTask object, so can directly set the error on it.

Currently the QIOTaskFunc signature takes an Object * for
the source, and an Error * for any error. We also need to
be able to provide a result pointer. Rather than continue
to add parameters to QIOTaskFunc, remove the existing
ones and simply pass the QIOTask object instead. This
has methods to access all the other data items required
in the callback impl.

Currently when a task fails, the error is never explicitly
associated with the task object, it is just passed along
through the completion callback. This adds the ability to
explicitly associate an error with the task.

Currently there is no data associated with a successful
task completion. This adds an opaque pointer to the task
to store an arbitrary result.

The GDestroyNotify parameter is already a pointer, so does
not need a '*' suffix on the type.

Incrementing the reference in qio_task_get_source is
not necessary, since we're not running concurrently
with any other code touching the QIOTask. This
minimizes chances of further memory leaks.

Clean up includes so that osdep.h is included first and headers
which it implies are not included manually.
This commit was created with scripts/clean-includes.
NB: If this commit breaks compilation for your out-of-tree
patchseries or fork, then you need to make sure you add
#include "qemu/osdep.h" to any new .c files that you have.

A number of I/O operations need to be performed asynchronously
to avoid blocking the main loop. The caller of such APIs need
to provide a callback to be invoked on completion/error and
need access to the error, if any. The small QIOTask provides
a simple framework for dealing with such probes. The API
docs inline provide an outline of how this is to be used.
Some functions don't have the ability to run asynchronously
(eg getaddrinfo always blocks), so to facilitate their use,
the task class provides a mechanism to run a blocking
function in a thread, while triggering the completion
callback in the main event loop thread. This easily allows
any synchronous function to be made asynchronous, albeit
at the cost of spawning a thread.
In this series, the QIOTask class will be used for things like
the TLS handshake, the websockets handshake and TCP connect()
progress.
The concept of QIOTask is inspired by the GAsyncResult
interface / GTask class in the GIO libraries. The min
version requirements on glib don't allow those to be
used from QEMU, so QIOTask provides a facsimilie which
can be easily switched to GTask in the future if the
min version is increased.
