When iotest 223 was first written, it didn't matter if we waited for
the qemu process to clean up. But with the introduction of a later
qemu-nbd process trying to reuse the same file, there is a race where
even though the asynchronous qemu process has responded to "quit", it
has not yet had time to unlock the file and exit, resulting in:

proof that we can see multiple contexts including qemu:dirty-bitmap

Having to fire up qemu, then use QMP commands for nbd-server-start
and nbd-server-add, just to expose a persistent dirty bitmap, is
rather tedious. Make it possible to expose a dirty bitmap using
just qemu-nbd (of course, for now this only works when qemu-nbd is
visiting a BDS formatted as qcow2).
Of course, any good feature also needs unit testing, so expand
iotest 223 to cover it.

With the experimental x-nbd-server-add-bitmap command, there was
a window of time where an NBD client could see the export but not
the associated dirty bitmap, which can cause a client that planned
on using the dirty bitmap to be forced to treat the entire image
as dirty as a safety fallback. Furthermore, if the QMP client
successfully exports a disk but then fails to add the bitmap, it
has to take on the burden of removing the export. Since we don't
allow changing the exposed dirty bitmap (whether to a different
bitmap, or removing advertisement of the bitmap), it is nicer to
make the bitmap tied to the export at the time the export is
created, with automatic failure to export if the bitmap is not
available.
The experimental command included an optional 'bitmap-export-name'
field for remapping the name exposed over NBD to be different from
the bitmap name stored on disk. However, my libvirt demo code
for implementing differential backups on top of persistent bitmaps
did not need to take advantage of that feature (it is instead
possible to create a new temporary bitmap with the desired name,
use block-dirty-bitmap-merge to merge one or more persistent
bitmaps into the temporary, then associate the temporary with the
NBD export, if control is needed over the exported bitmap name).
Hence, I'm not copying that part of the experiment over to the
stable addition. For more details on the libvirt demo, see
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-October/msg01254.html,
https://kvmforum2018.sched.com/event/FzuB/facilitating-incremental-backup-eric-blake-red-hat
This patch focuses on the user interface, and reduces (but does
not completely eliminate) the window where an NBD client can see
the export but not the dirty bitmap, with less work to clean up
after errors. Later patches will add further cleanups now that
this interface is declared stable via a single QMP command,
including removing the race window.
Update test 223 to use the new interface.

Our initial implementation of x-nbd-server-add-bitmap put
in a restriction because of incremental backups: in that
usage, we are exporting one qcow2 file (the temporary overlay
target of a blockdev-backup sync:none job) and a dirty bitmap
owned by a second qcow2 file (the source of the
blockdev-backup, which is the backing file of the temporary).
While both qcow2 files are still writable (the target in
order to capture copy-on-write of old contents, and the
source in order to track live guest writes in the meantime),
the NBD client expects to see constant data, including the
dirty bitmap. An enabled bitmap in the source would be
modified by guest writes, which is at odds with the NBD
export being a read-only constant view, hence the initial
code choice of enforcing a disabled bitmap (the intent is
that the exposed bitmap was disabled in the same transaction
that started the blockdev-backup job, although we don't want
to track enough state to actually enforce that).
However, consider the case of a bitmap contained in a read-only
node (including when the bitmap is found in a backing layer of
the active image). Because the node can't be modified, the
bitmap won't change due to writes, regardless of whether it is
still enabled. Forbidding the export unless the bitmap is
disabled is awkward, paritcularly since we can't change the
bitmap to be disabled (because the node is read-only).
Alternatively, consider the case of live storage migration,
where management directs the destination to create a writable
NBD server, then performs a drive-mirror from the source to
the target, prior to doing the rest of the live migration.
Since storage migration can be time-consuming, it may be wise
to let the destination include a dirty bitmap to track which
portions it has already received, where even if the migration
is interrupted and restarted, the source can query the
destination block status in order to potentially minimize
re-sending data that has not changed in the meantime on a
second attempt. Such code has not been written, and might not
be trivial (after all, a cluster being marked dirty in the
bitmap does not necessarily guarantee it has the desired
contents), but it makes sense that letting an active dirty
bitmap be exposed and changing alongside writes may prove
useful in the future.
Solve both issues by gating the restriction against a
disabled bitmap to only happen when the caller has requested
a read-only export, and where the BDS that owns the bitmap
(whether or not it is the BDS handed to nbd_export_new() or
from its backing chain) is still writable. We could drop
the check altogether (if management apps are prepared to
deal with a changing bitmap even on a read-only image), but
for now keeping a check for the read-only case still stands
a chance of preventing management errors.
Update iotest 223 to show the looser behavior by leaving
a bitmap enabled the whole run; note that we have to tear
down and re-export a node when handling an error.

Testing success paths is important, but it's also nice to highlight
expected failure handling, to show that we don't crash, and so that
upcoming tests that change behavior can demonstrate the resulting
effects on error paths.
Add the following errors:
Attempting to export without a running server
Attempting to start a second server
Attempting to export a bad node name
Attempting to export a name that is already exported
Attempting to export an enabled bitmap
Attempting to remove an already removed export
Attempting to quit server a second time
All of these properly complain except for a second server-stop,
which will be fixed next.

Although this test is NOT a full test of image fleecing (as it
intentionally uses just a single block device directly exported
over NBD, rather than trying to set up a blockdev-backup job with
multiple BDS involved), it DOES prove that qemu as a server is
able to properly expose a dirty bitmap over NBD.
When coupled with image fleecing, it is then possible for a
third-party client to do an incremental backup by using
qemu-img map with the x-dirty-bitmap option to learn which parts
of the file are dirty (perhaps confusingly, they are the portions
mapped as "data":false - which is part of the reason this is
still in the x- experimental namespace), along with another
normal client (perhaps 'qemu-nbd -c' to expose the server over
/dev/nbd0 and then just use normal I/O on that block device) to
read the dirty sections.
