fbb92b6798 block: Increase BB.in_flight for coroutine and sync interfaces
External callers of blk_co_*() and of the synchronous blk_*() functions
don't currently increase the BlockBackend.in_flight counter, but calls
from blk_aio_*() do, so there is an inconsistency whether the counter
has been increased or not.

This patch moves the actual operations to static functions that can
later know they will always be called with in_flight increased exactly
once, even for external callers using the blk_co_*() coroutine
interfaces.

If the public blk_co_*() interface is unused, remove it.

c80d8b06cf block: Add @exact parameter to bdrv_co_truncate()
We have two drivers (iscsi and file-posix) that (in some cases) return
success from their .bdrv_co_truncate() implementation if the block
device is larger than the requested offset, but cannot be shrunk.  Some
callers do not want that behavior, so this patch adds a new parameter
that they can use to turn off that behavior.

This patch just adds the parameter and lets the block/io.c and
block/block-backend.c functions pass it around.  All other callers
always pass false and none of the implementations evaluate it, so that
this patch does not change existing behavior.  Future patches take care
of that.

cf3129323f block-backend: Queue requests while drained
This fixes devices like IDE that can still start new requests from I/O
handlers in the CPU thread while the block backend is drained.

The basic assumption is that in a drain section, no new requests should
be allowed through a BlockBackend (blk_drained_begin/end don't exist,
we get drain sections only on the node level). However, there are two
special cases where requests should not be queued:

1. Block jobs: We already make sure that block jobs are paused in a
   drain section, so they won't start new requests. However, if the
   drain_begin is called on the job's BlockBackend first, it can happen
   that we deadlock because the job stays busy until it reaches a pause
   point - which it can't if its requests aren't processed any more.

   The proper solution here would be to make all requests through the
   job's filter node instead of using a BlockBackend. For now, just
   disabling request queuing on the job BlockBackend is simpler.

2. In test cases where making requests through bdrv_* would be
   cumbersome because we'd need a BdrvChild. As we already got the
   functionality to disable request queuing from 1., use it in tests,
   too, for convenience.

421919d76b block: Remove blk_pread_unthrottled()
The functionality offered by blk_pread_unthrottled() goes back to commit
498e386c58. Then, we couldn't perform I/O throttling with synchronous
requests because timers wouldn't be executed in polling loops. So the
commit automatically disabled I/O throttling as soon as a synchronous
request was issued.

However, for geometry detection during disk initialisation, we always
used (and still use) synchronous requests even if guest requests use AIO
later. Geometry detection was not wanted to disable I/O throttling, so
bdrv_pread_unthrottled() was introduced which disabled throttling only
temporarily.

All of this isn't necessary any more because we do run timers in polling
loop and even synchronous requests are now using coroutine
infrastructure internally. For this reason, commit 90c78624f already
removed the automatic disabling of I/O throttling.

It's time to get rid of the workaround for the removed code, and its
abuse of blk_root_drained_begin()/end(), as well.

5def6b80e1 block: Switch transfer length bounds to byte-based
Sector-based limits are awkward to think about; in our on-going
quest to move to byte-based interfaces, convert max_transfer_length
and opt_transfer_length.  Rename them (dropping the _length suffix)
so that the compiler will help us catch the change in semantics
across any rebased code, and improve the documentation.  Use unsigned
values, so that we don't have to worry about negative values and
so that bit-twiddling is easier; however, we are still constrained
by 2^31 of signed int in most APIs.

When a value comes from an external source (iscsi and raw-posix),
sanitize the results to ensure that opt_transfer is a power of 2.

d004bd52aa block: Rename blk_write_zeroes()
Commit 983a1600 changed the semantics of blk_write_zeroes() to
be byte-based rather than sector-based, but did not change the
name, which is an open invitation for other code to misuse the
function.  Renaming to pwrite_zeroes() makes it more in line
with other byte-based interfaces, and will help make it easier
to track which remaining write_zeroes interfaces still need
conversion.

28eb9b12f7 block: Drop blk_new_with_bs()
Its only caller is blk_new_open(), so we can just inline it there.

The bdrv_new_root() call is dropped in the process because we can just
let bdrv_open() create the BDS.

7c8eece45b block: Avoid bs->blk in bdrv_next()
We need to introduce a separate BdrvNextIterator struct that can keep
more state than just the current BDS in order to avoid using the bs->blk
pointer.
