Most of the multifd code uses send/recv to represent the two sides, but
some rare cases use save/load.
Since send/recv is the majority, replacing the save/load use cases to use
send/recv globally. Now we reach a consensus on the naming.

The current multifd_queue_page() is not easy to read and follow. It is not
good with a few reasons:
- No helper at all to show what exactly does a condition mean; in short,
readability is low.
- Rely on pages->ramblock being cleared to detect an empty queue. It's
slightly an overload of the ramblock pointer, per Fabiano [1], which I
also agree.
- Contains a self recursion, even if not necessary..
Rewrite this function. We add some comments to make it even clearer on
what it does.

Split multifd_send_terminate_threads() into two functions:
- multifd_send_set_error(): used when an error happened on the sender
side, set error and quit state only
- multifd_send_terminate_threads(): used only by the main thread to kick
all multifd send threads out of sleep, for the last recycling.
Use multifd_send_set_error() in the three old call sites where only the
error will be set.
Use multifd_send_terminate_threads() in the last one where the main thread
will kick the multifd threads at last in multifd_save_cleanup().
Both helpers will need to set quitting=1.

This patch redefines the interfacing of ->send_prepare(). It further
simplifies multifd_send_thread() especially on zero copy.
Now with the new interface, we require the hook to do all the work for
preparing the IOVs to send. After it's completed, the IOVs should be ready
to be dumped into the specific multifd QIOChannel later.
So now the API looks like:
p->pages -----------> send_prepare() -------------> IOVs
This also prepares for the case where the input can be extended to even not
any p->pages. But that's for later.
This patch will achieve similar goal of what Fabiano used to propose here:

Introduce a helper multifd_send_prepare_header() to setup the header packet
for multifd sender.
It's fine to setup the IOV[0] _before_ send_prepare() because the packet
buffer is already ready, even if the content is to be filled in.
With this helper, we can already slightly clean up the zero copy path.
Note that I explicitly put it into multifd.h, because I want it inlined
directly into multifd*.c where necessary later.

This field, no matter whether on src or dest, is only used for debugging
purpose.
They can even be removed already, unless it still more or less provide some
accounting on "how many packets are sent/recved for this thread". The
other more important one is called packet_num, which is embeded in the
multifd packet headers (MultiFDPacket_t).
So let's keep them for now, but make them much easier to understand, by
doing below:
- Rename both of them to packets_sent / packets_recved, the old
name (num_packets) are waaay too confusing when we already have
MultiFDPacket_t.packets_num.
- Avoid worrying on the "initial packet": we know we will send it, that's
good enough. The accounting won't matter a great deal to start with 0 or
with 1.
- Move them to where we send/recv the packets. They're:
- multifd_send_fill_packet() for senders.
- multifd_recv_unfill_packet() for receivers.

The sender thread will yield the p->mutex before IO starts, trying to not
block the requester thread. This may be unnecessary lock optimizations,
because the requester can already read pending_job safely even without the
lock, because the requester is currently the only one who can assign a
task.
Drop that lock complication on both sides:
(1) in the sender thread, always take the mutex until job done
(2) in the requester thread, check pending_job clear lockless

Multifd provide a threaded model for processing jobs. On sender side,
there can be two kinds of job: (1) a list of pages to send, or (2) a sync
request.
The sync request is a very special kind of job. It never contains a page
array, but only a multifd packet telling the dest side to synchronize with
sent pages.
Before this patch, both requests use the pending_job field, no matter what
the request is, it will boost pending_job, while multifd sender thread will
decrement it after it finishes one job.
However this should be racy, because SYNC is special in that it needs to
set p->flags with MULTIFD_FLAG_SYNC, showing that this is a sync request.
Consider a sequence of operations where:
- migration thread enqueue a job to send some pages, pending_job++ (0->1)
- [...before the selected multifd sender thread wakes up...]
- migration thread enqueue another job to sync, pending_job++ (1->2),
setup p->flags=MULTIFD_FLAG_SYNC
- multifd sender thread wakes up, found pending_job==2
- send the 1st packet with MULTIFD_FLAG_SYNC and list of pages
- send the 2nd packet with flags==0 and no pages
This is not expected, because MULTIFD_FLAG_SYNC should hopefully be done
after all the pages are received. Meanwhile, the 2nd packet will be
completely useless, which contains zero information.
I didn't verify above, but I think this issue is still benign in that at
least on the recv side we always receive pages before handling
MULTIFD_FLAG_SYNC. However that's not always guaranteed and just tricky.
One other reason I want to separate it is using p->flags to communicate
between the two threads is also not clearly defined, it's very hard to read
and understand why accessing p->flags is always safe; see the current impl
of multifd_send_thread() where we tried to cache only p->flags. It doesn't
need to be that complicated.
This patch introduces pending_sync, a separate flag just to show that the
requester needs a sync. Alongside, we remove the tricky caching of
p->flags now because after this patch p->flags should only be used by
multifd sender thread now, which will be crystal clear. So it is always
thread safe to access p->flags.
With that, we can also safely convert the pending_job into a boolean,
because we don't support >1 pending jobs anyway.
Always use atomic ops to access both flags to make sure no cache effect.
When at it, drop the initial setting of "pending_job = 0" because it's
always allocated using g_new0().

This array is redundant when p->pages exists. Now we extended the life of
p->pages to the whole period where pending_job is set, it should be safe to
always use p->pages->offset[] rather than p->normal[]. Drop the array.
Alongside, the normal_num is also redundant, which is the same to
p->pages->num.
This doesn't apply to recv side, because there's no extra buffering on recv
side, so p->normal[] array is still needed.

Now we reset MultiFDPages_t object in the multifd sender thread in the
middle of the sending job. That's not necessary, because the "*pages"
struct will not be reused anyway until pending_job is cleared.
Move that to the end after the job is completed, provide a helper to reset
a "*pages" object. Use that same helper when free the object too.
This prepares us to keep using p->pages in the follow up patches, where we
may drop p->normal[].

Multifd send side has two fields to indicate error quits:
- MultiFDSendParams.quit
- &multifd_send_state->exiting
Merge them into the global one. The replacement is done by changing all
p->quit checks into the global var check. The global check doesn't need
any lock.
A few more things done on top of this altogether:
- multifd_send_terminate_threads()
Moving the xchg() of &multifd_send_state->exiting upper, so as to cover
the tracepoint, migrate_set_error() and migrate_set_state().
- multifd_send_sync_main()
In the 2nd loop, add one more check over the global var to make sure we
don't keep the looping if QEMU already decided to quit.
- multifd_tls_outgoing_handshake()
Use multifd_send_terminate_threads() to set the error state. That has
a benefit of updating MigrationState.error to that error too, so we can
persist that 1st error we hit in that specific channel.
- multifd_new_send_channel_async()
Take similar approach like above, drop the migrate_set_error() because
multifd_send_terminate_threads() already covers that. Unwrap the helper
multifd_new_send_channel_cleanup() along the way; not really needed.
