With the '-valgrind' option, let all the QEMU processes be run under
the Valgrind tool. The Valgrind own parameters may be set with its
environment variable VALGRIND_OPTS, e.g.
$ VALGRIND_OPTS="--leak-check=yes" ./check -valgrind <test#>
or they may be listed in the Valgrind checked file ./.valgrindrc or
~/.valgrindrc like
--memcheck:leak-check=no
--memcheck:track-origins=yes
To exclude a specific process from running under the Valgrind, the
corresponding environment variable VALGRIND_QEMU_<name> is to be set
to the empty string:
$ VALGRIND_QEMU_IO= ./check -valgrind <test#>
When QEMU-IO process is being killed, the shell report refers to the
text of the command in _qemu_io_wrapper(), which was modified with this
patch. So, the benchmark output for the tests 039, 061 and 137 is to be
changed also.

One of the recent commits changed the way qemu-io prints out its
errors and warnings - they are now prefixed with the program name.
We've got to adapt the iotests accordingly to prevent that they
are failing.

Sufficient L2 cache can noticeably improve the performance when using
large images with frequent I/O.
Previously, unless 'cache-size' was specified and was large enough, the
L2 cache was set to a certain size without taking the virtual image size
into account.
Now, the L2 cache assignment is aware of the virtual size of the image,
and will cover the entire image, unless the cache size needed for that is
larger than a certain maximum. This maximum is set to 1 MB by default
(enough to cover an 8 GB image with the default cluster size) but can
be increased or decreased using the 'l2-cache-size' option. This option
was previously documented as the *maximum* L2 cache size, and this patch
makes it behave as such, instead of as a constant size. Also, the
existing option 'cache-size' can limit the sum of both L2 and refcount
caches, as previously.

The L2 and refcount caches have default sizes that can be overridden
using the l2-cache-size and refcount-cache-size (an additional
parameter named cache-size sets the combined size of both caches).
Unless forced by one of the aforementioned parameters, QEMU will set
the unspecified sizes so that the L2 cache is 4 times larger than the
refcount cache.
This is based on the premise that the refcount metadata needs to be
only a fourth of the L2 metadata to cover the same amount of disk
space. This is incorrect for two reasons:
a) The amount of disk covered by an L2 table depends solely on the
cluster size, but in the case of a refcount block it depends on
the cluster size *and* the width of each refcount entry.
The 4/1 ratio is only valid with 16-bit entries (the default).
b) When we talk about disk space and L2 tables we are talking about
guest space (L2 tables map guest clusters to host clusters),
whereas refcount blocks are used for host clusters (including
L1/L2 tables and the refcount blocks themselves). On a fully
populated (and uncompressed) qcow2 file, image size > virtual size
so there are more refcount entries than L2 entries.
Problem (a) could be fixed by adjusting the algorithm to take into
account the refcount entry width. Problem (b) could be fixed by
increasing a bit the refcount cache size to account for the clusters
used for qcow2 metadata.
However this patch takes a completely different approach and instead
of keeping a ratio between both cache sizes it assigns as much as
possible to the L2 cache and the remainder to the refcount cache.
The reason is that L2 tables are used for every single I/O request
from the guest and the effect of increasing the cache is significant
and clearly measurable. Refcount blocks are however only used for
cluster allocation and internal snapshots and in practice are accessed
sequentially in most cases, so the effect of increasing the cache is
negligible (even when doing random writes from the guest).
So, make the refcount cache as small as possible unless the user
explicitly asks for a larger one.

Currently all block tests use the traditional syntax for images
just specifying a filename. To support the LUKS driver without
resorting to JSON, the tests need to be able to use the new
--image-opts argument to qemu-img and qemu-io.
This introduces a new env variable IMGOPTSSYNTAX. If this is
set to 'true', then qemu-img/qemu-io should use --image-opts.

Commit 934659c switched the iotests to run qemu-io from a bash subshell,
in order to catch segfaults. This method is incompatible with the
current valgrind_qemu_io() bash function.
Move the valgrind usage into the exec subshell in _qemu_io_wrapper(),
while making sure the original return value is passed back to the
caller.
Update test output for tests 039, 061, and 137 as it looks for the
specific subshell command when the process is terminated.
