Registering an I/O buffer is only a performance optimization hint but it
is still necessary to return errors when it fails.
Later patches will need to detect errors when registering buffers but an
immediate advantage is that error_report() calls are no longer needed in
block driver .bdrv_register_buf() functions.

The only implementor of bdrv_register_buf() is block/nvme.c, where the
size is not needed when unregistering a buffer. This is because
util/vfio-helpers.c can look up mappings by address.
Future block drivers that implement bdrv_register_buf() may not be able
to do their job given only the buffer address. Add a size argument to
bdrv_unregister_buf().
Also document the assumptions about
bdrv_register_buf()/bdrv_unregister_buf() calls. The same <host, size>
values that were given to bdrv_register_buf() must be given to
bdrv_unregister_buf().
gcc 11.2.1 emits a spurious warning that img_bench()'s buf_size local
variable might be uninitialized, so it's necessary to silence the
compiler.

Header guard symbols should match their file name to make guard
collisions less likely.
Cleaned up with scripts/clean-header-guards.pl, followed by some
renaming of new guard symbols picked by the script to better ones.

Similarly to the previous patches, split block-backend.h
in block-backend-io.h and block-backend-global-state.h
In addition, remove "block/block.h" include as it seems
it is not necessary anymore, together with "qemu/iov.h"
block-backend-common.h contains the structures shared between
the two headers, and the functions that can't be categorized as
I/O or global state.
Assertions are added in the next patch.
