All drivers use bs->file instead of s->hd for quite a while now, so it's time
to remove s->hd.

This changes the vpc block driver (for VHD) to read/write multiple sectors at
once instead of doing a request for each single sector.
Before this, running qemu-iotests for VPC took ages, now it's actually quite
reasonable to run it always (down from ~1 hour to 40 seconds for me).

The VHD algorithm calculates a disk geometry
which is usually smaller than the requested size.
QEMU tried to round up but failed for certain sizes:
qemu-img create -f vpc disk.vpc 9437184
would create an image with 9435136 bytes
(which is too small for qemu-img convert).
Instead of hacking the geometry algorithm, the patch
increases the number of sectors until we get enough
sectors.

Format drivers shouldn't need to bother with things like file names, but rather
just get an open BlockDriverState for the underlying protocol. This patch
introduces this behaviour for bdrv_open implementation. For protocols which
need to access the filename to open their file/device/connection/... a new
callback bdrv_file_open is introduced which doesn't get an underlying file
opened.
For now, also some of the more obscure formats use bdrv_file_open because they
open() the file themselves instead of using the block.c functions. They need to
be fixed in later patches.

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 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.
