It is possible for an io_poll callback to be concurrently executed along
with an aio_set_fd_handlers. This can cause all sorts of problems, like
a NULL callback or a bad opaque pointer.
This changes set_fd_handlers so that it no longer modify existing handlers
entries and instead, always insert those after having proper initialisation.

Cleaning the events will cause aio_epoll_update to unregister the fd.

Commit 70232b5253 ("aio-posix: Don't count ctx->notifier as progress when
2018-08-15), by not reporting progress, causes aio_poll to execute the
system call when polling succeeds because of ctx->notifier. This introduces
latency before the call to aio_bh_poll() and negates the advantages of
polling, unfortunately.
The fix builds on the previous patch, separating the effect of polling on
the timeout from the progress reported to aio_poll(). ctx->notifier
does zero the timeout, causing the caller to skip the system call,
but it does not report progress, so that the bug fix of commit 70232b5253
still stands.

This is a preparation for the next patch, and also a very small
optimization. Compute the timeout only once, before invoking
try_poll_mode, and adjust it in run_poll_handlers. The adjustment
is the polling time when polling fails, or zero (non-blocking) if
polling succeeds.

It is valid for an aio_set_fd_handler to happen concurrently with
aio_poll. In that case, poll_disable_cnt can change under the heels
of aio_poll, and the assertion on poll_disable_cnt can fail in
run_poll_handlers.
Therefore, this patch simply checks the counter on every polling
iteration. There are no particular needs for ordering, since the
polling loop is terminated anyway by aio_notify at the end of
aio_set_fd_handler.

An aio_notify() pairs with an aio_notify_accept(). The former should
happen in the main thread or a vCPU thread, and the latter should be
done in the IOThread.
There is one rare case that the main thread or vCPU thread may "steal"
the aio_notify() event just raised by itself, in bdrv_set_aio_context()
[1]. The sequence is like this:
main thread IO Thread
===============================================================
bdrv_drained_begin()
aio_disable_external(ctx)
aio_poll(ctx, true)
ctx->notify_me += 2
...
bdrv_drained_end()
...
aio_notify()
...
bdrv_set_aio_context()
aio_poll(ctx, false)
[1] aio_notify_accept(ctx)
ppoll() /* Hang! */
[1] is problematic. It will clear the ctx->notifier event so that
the blocked ppoll() will not return.
(For the curious, this bug was noticed when booting a number of VMs
simultaneously in RHV. One or two of the VMs will hit this race
condition, making the VIRTIO device unresponsive to I/O commands. When
it hangs, Seabios is busy waiting for a read request to complete (read
MBR), right after initializing the virtio-blk-pci device, using 100%
guest CPU. See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1562750
for the original bug analysis.)
aio_notify() only injects an event when ctx->notify_me is set,
correspondingly aio_notify_accept() is only useful when ctx->notify_me
_was_ set. Move the call to it into the "blocking" branch. This will
effectively skip [1] and fix the hang.
Furthermore, blocking aio_poll is only allowed on home thread
(in_aio_context_home_thread), because otherwise two blocking
aio_poll()'s can steal each other's ctx->notifier event and cause
hanging just like described above.

After iothread is enabled internally inside QEMU with GMainContext, we
may encounter this warning when destroying the iothread:
(qemu-system-x86_64:19925): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_source_remove_poll:
assertion '!SOURCE_DESTROYED (source)' failed
The problem is that g_source_remove_poll() does not allow to remove one
source from array if the source is detached from its owner
context. (peterx: which IMHO does not make much sense)
Fix it on QEMU side by avoid calling g_source_remove_poll() if we know
the object is during destruction, and we won't leak anything after all
since the array will be gone soon cleanly even with that fd.

The AioContext data structures are now protected by list_lock and/or
they are walked with FOREACH_RCU primitives. There is no need anymore
to acquire the AioContext for the entire duration of aio_dispatch.
Instead, just acquire it before and after invoking the callbacks.
The next step is then to push it further down.

AioContext is fairly self contained, the only dependency is QEMUTimer but
that in turn doesn't need anything else. So move them out of block-obj-y
to avoid introducing a dependency from io/ to block-obj-y.
main-loop and its dependency iohandler also need to be moved, because
later in this series io/ will call iohandler_get_aio_context.
