Drop write notifiers and use filter node instead.
= Changes =
1. Add filter-node-name argument for backup qmp api. We have to do it
in this commit, as 257 needs to be fixed.
2. There are no more write notifiers here, so is_write_notifier
parameter is dropped from block-copy paths.
3. To sync with in-flight requests at job finish we now have drained
removing of the filter, we don't need rw-lock.
4. Block-copy is now using BdrvChildren instead of BlockBackends
5. As backup-top owns these children, we also move block-copy state
into backup-top's ownership.
= Iotest changes =
56: op-blocker doesn't shoot now, as we set it on source, but then
check on filter, when trying to start second backup.
To keep the test we instead can catch another collision: both jobs will
get 'drive0' job-id, as job-id parameter is unspecified. To prevent
interleaving with file-posix locks (as they are dependent on config)
let's use another target for second backup.
Also, it's obvious now that we'd like to drop this op-blocker at all
and add a test-case for two backups from one node (to different
destinations) actually works. But not in these series.
141: Output changed: prepatch, "Node is in use" comes from bdrv_has_blk
check inside qmp_blockdev_del. But we've dropped block-copy blk
objects, so no more blk objects on source bs (job blk is on backup-top
filter bs). New message is from op-blocker, which is the next check in
qmp_blockdev_add.
257: The test wants to emulate guest write during backup. They should
go to filter node, not to original source node, of course. Therefore we
need to specify filter node name and use it.

1. As BlockCopyState keeps own BlockBackend objects, remaining
job->common.blk users only use it to get bs by blk_bs() call, so clear
job->commen.blk permissions set in block_job_create and add
job->source_bs to be used instead of blk_bs(job->common.blk), to keep

2. Rename s/initializing_bitmap/skip_unallocated/ to sound a bit better

code uses some BlockCopyState fields directly, let's postpone it for

Accept bitmaps and sync policies for the other backup modes.
This allows us to do things like create a bitmap synced to a full backup
without a transaction, or start a resumable backup process.
Some combinations don't make sense, though:
- NEVER policy combined with any non-BITMAP mode doesn't do anything,
because the bitmap isn't used for input or output.
It's harmless, but is almost certainly never what the user wanted.
- sync=NONE is more questionable. It can't use on-success because this
job never completes with success anyway, and the resulting artifact
of 'always' is suspect: because we start with a full bitmap and only
copy out segments that get written to, the final output bitmap will
always be ... a fully set bitmap.
Maybe there's contexts in which bitmaps make sense for sync=none,
but not without more severe changes to the current job, and omitting
it here doesn't prevent us from adding it later.

Presently, If sync=TOP is selected, we mark the entire bitmap as dirty.
In the write notifier handler, we dutifully copy out such regions.
Fix this in three parts:
1. Mark the bitmap as being initialized before the first yield.
2. After the first yield but before the backup loop, interrogate the
allocation status asynchronously and initialize the bitmap.
3. Teach the write notifier to interrogate allocation status if it is
invoked during bitmap initialization.
As an effect of this patch, the job progress for TOP backups
now behaves like this:
- total progress starts at bdrv_length.
- As allocation status is interrogated, total progress decreases.
- As blocks are copied, current progress increases.
Taken together, the floor and ceiling move to meet each other.

This adds an "always" policy for bitmap synchronization. Regardless of if
the job succeeds or fails, the bitmap is *always* synchronized. This means
that for backups that fail part-way through, the bitmap retains a record of
which sectors need to be copied out to accomplish a new backup using the
old, partial result.
In effect, this allows us to "resume" a failed backup; however the new backup
will be from the new point in time, so it isn't a "resume" as much as it is
an "incremental retry." This can be useful in the case of extremely large
backups that fail considerably through the operation and we'd like to not waste
the work that was already performed.

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.

The backup job must only copy areas that the copy_bitmap reports as
dirty. This is always the case when using traditional non-offloading
backup, because it copies each cluster separately. When offloading the
copy operation, we sometimes copy more than one cluster at a time, but
we only check whether the first one is dirty.
Therefore, whenever copy offloading is possible, the backup job
currently produces wrong output when the guest writes to an area of
which an inner part has already been backed up, because that inner part
will be re-copied.

Most of these jobs do not see any changes to the order in which they
clean up their resources, except the test-blockjob-txn test, which
now puts down its bs before job_completed is called.
This is safe for the same reason the reordering in the mirror job is

Fleecing scheme works as follows: we want a kind of temporary snapshot
of active drive A. We create temporary image B, with B->backing = A.
Then we start backup(sync=none) from A to B. From this point, B reads
as point-in-time snapshot of A (A continues to be active drive,
accepting guest IO).
This scheme needs some additional synchronization between reads from B
and backup COW operations, otherwise, the following situation is
theoretically possible:
(assume B is qcow2, client is NBD client, reading from B)
1. client starts reading and take qcow2 mutex in qcow2_co_preadv, and
goes up to l2 table loading (assume cache miss)
2) guest write => backup COW => qcow2 write =>
try to take qcow2 mutex => waiting
3. l2 table loaded, we see that cluster is UNALLOCATED, go to
"case QCOW2_CLUSTER_UNALLOCATED" and unlock mutex before
bdrv_co_preadv(bs->backing, ...)
4) aha, mutex unlocked, backup COW continues, and we finally finish
guest write and change cluster in our active disk A
5. actually, do bdrv_co_preadv(bs->backing, ...) and read
_new updated_ data.
To avoid this, let's make backup writes serializing, to not intersect
with reads from B.
Note: we expand range of handled cases from (sync=none and
B->backing = A) to just (A in backing chain of B), to finally allow
safe reading from B during backup for all cases when A in backing chain
of B, i.e. B formally looks like point-in-time snapshot of A.

Pass read flags and write flags separately. This is needed to handle
coming BDRV_REQ_NO_SERIALISING clearly in following patches.
