The raw-posix block driver actually supports byte-aligned requests now
on non-O_DIRECT images, like it already (and previously incorrectly)
claimed in bs->request_alignment.
For some block drivers this means that a RMW cycle can be avoided when
they write sub-sector metadata e.g. for cluster allocation.

In order to use the modern byte-based .bdrv_co_preadv/pwritev()
interface, this patch switches raw-posix to coroutine-based interfaces
as a first step. In terms of semantics and performance, it doesn't make
a difference with the existing code whether we go from a coroutine to a
callback-based interface already in block/io.c or only in linux-aio.c
As there have been concerns in the past that this change may be a step
in the wrong direction with respect to a possible AIO fast path, the
old callback-based interface for linux-aio is left around and can be
reactivated when a fast path (e.g. directly from virtio-blk dataplane,
bypassing the whole block layer) is implemented.

Extract the handling of io_plug "depth" from linux-aio.c and let the
main bdrv_drain loop do nothing but wait on I/O.
Like the two newly introduced functions, bdrv_io_plug and bdrv_io_unplug
now operate on all children. The visit order is now symmetrical between
plug and unplug, making it possible for formats to implement plug/unplug.

qemu-common.h should only be included by .c files. Its file comment
explains why: "No header file should depend on qemu-common.h, as this
would easily lead to circular header dependencies."
qemu/iov.h includes qemu-common.h for QEMUIOVector stuff. Move all
that to qemu/iov.h and drop the ill-advised include. Include
qemu/iov.h where the QEMUIOVector stuff is now missing.

Drop the assumption that we're using the main AioContext for raw-win32.
Convert the aio-win32 code to support detach/attach and replace
qemu_aio_wait() with aio_poll().
The .bdrv_detach/attach_aio_context() interfaces move the aio-win32
event notifier from the old to the new AioContext.

Each QEMUWin32AIOState event notifier is associated with an AioContext.
Since BlockDriverState instances can use different AioContexts we cannot
continue to use a global QEMUWin32AIOState.
Let each BDRVRawState have its own QEMUWin32AIOState and free it when
BDRVRawState is closed.

Hot unplugging -drive aio=native,file=test.img,format=raw images leaves
the Linux AIO event notifier and struct qemu_laio_state allocated.
Luckily nothing will use the event notifier after the BlockDriverState
has been closed so the handler function is never called.
It's still worth fixing this resource leak.

The code is similar to the implementation of discard and write_zeroes
with UNMAP. However, failure must be propagated up to block.c.
The stale page cache problem can be reproduced as follows:
# modprobe scsi-debug lbpws=1 lbprz=1
# ./qemu-io /dev/sdXX
qemu-io> write -P 0xcc 0 2M
qemu-io> write -z 0 1M
qemu-io> read -P 0x00 0 512
Pattern verification failed at offset 0, 512 bytes
qemu-io> read -v 0 512
00000000: cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc cc ................
...
# ./qemu-io --cache=none /dev/sdXX
qemu-io> write -P 0xcc 0 2M
qemu-io> write -z 0 1M
qemu-io> read -P 0x00 0 512
qemu-io> read -v 0 512
00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................

This is easy with the thread pool, because we can use s->is_xfs and
s->has_discard from the worker function.
QEMU has a widespread assumption that each I/O operation writes less
than 2^32 bytes. This patch doesn't fix it throughout of course,
but it starts correcting struct RawPosixAIOData so that there is
no regression with respect to the synchronous discard implementation.

With the new support for EventNotifiers in the AIO event loop, we
can hook a completion port to every opened file and use asynchronous
I/O on them.
Wine's support is extremely inefficient, also because it really does
the I/O synchronously on regular files. (!) But it works, and it is
good to keep the Win32 and POSIX ports as similar as possible.
