This patch adds a small help text to each of the options in the block drivers
which can be displayed by using qemu-img create -f fmt -o ?

Now that we have a separate aio pool structure we can remove those
aio pool details from BlockDriver.
Every driver supporting AIO now needs to declare a static AIOPool
with the aiocb size and the cancellation method. This cleans up the
current code considerably and will make it cleaner and more obvious
to support two different aio implementations behind a single
BlockDriver.

[this one is required for [PATCH] fully split aio_pool from BlockDriver,
sorry for not sending it out earlier]
Add a qcow_aio_setup helper to qcow to shared common code between
the aio_readv and aio_writev methods. Based on the function with
the same name in qcow2.

There is only one (internal) user left and it can be switched to the normal
emulation provided in block.c

Now we can make use of the newly introduced option structures. Instead of
having bdrv_create carry more and more parameters (which are format specific in
most cases), just pass a option structure as defined by the driver itself.
bdrv_create2() contains an emulation of the old interface to simplify the
transition.
