It doesn't do anything yet except storing the options QDict in the
BlockDriverState.

It is better to present homogeneous hardware independent of the storage
technology that is chosen on the host, hence we make discard a host
parameter; the user can choose whether to pass it down to the image
format and protocol, or to ignore it.
Using DISCARD with filesystems can cause very severe fragmentation, so it
is left default-off for now. This can change later when we implement the
"anchor" operation for efficient management of preallocated files.
There is still one choice to make: whether DISCARD has an effect on the
dirty bitmap or not. I chose yes, though there is a disadvantage: if
the guest is buggy and issues discards for data that is in use, there
will be no way to migrate storage for that guest without downgrading
the machine type to an older one.

There can be a need to turn output to stdout off. This patch adds a -q option
that enable "Quiet mode". In Quiet mode, only errors are printed out.

There's no synchronous wrapper for bdrv_co_is_allocated_above function
so it's not possible to check for sector allocation in an image with
a backing file.

Show how many clusters are compressed. This can be used to monitor how
many compressed clusters remain and whether to recompress the image.

This patch adds the support for reporting the image end offset (in
bytes). This is particularly useful after a conversion (or a rebase)
where the destination is a block device in order to find the first
unused byte at the end of the image.

This actually uses the dirty bitmap in the block layer, and converts
mirroring to use an HBitmapIter.

The qiov_is_aligned() function checks whether a QEMUIOVector meets a
BlockDriverState's alignment requirements. This is needed by
virtio-blk-data-plane so:
1. Move the function from block/raw-posix.c to block/block.c.
2. Make it public in block/block.h.
3. Rename to bdrv_qiov_is_aligned().
4. Change return type from int to bool.

The raw_get_aio_fd() function allows virtio-blk-data-plane to get the
file descriptor of a raw image file with Linux AIO enabled. This
interface is really a layering violation that can be resolved once the
block layer is able to run outside the global mutex - at that point
virtio-blk-data-plane will switch from custom Linux AIO code to using
the block layer.
