The io_pattern style functions have the following loop:
for i in `seq 1 $count`; do
echo ... $(( start + i * step )) ...
done
Offsets are 1-based so start=1024, step=512, count=4 yields:
1536, 2048, 2560, 3072
Normally we expect:
1024, 1536, 2048, 2560
Most tests ignore this detail, which means that they perform I/O to a
slightly different range than expected by the test author.
Later on things got less innocent and tests started trying to compensate
for the 1-based indexing. This included negative start values in test
024 and my own attempt with count-1 in test 028!
The end result is that tests that use io_pattern are hard to reason
about and don't work the way you'd expect. It's time to clean this mess
up.
This patch switches io_pattern to 0-based offsets. This requires
adjusting the golden outputs since I/O ranges are now shifted and output
differs.
Verifying these output diffs is easy, however. Each diff hunk moves one
I/O from beyond the end of the pattern range to the beginning.

The tests use bash language features like 'let', which aren't supported
by /bin/sh on systems that use a conservative shell like dash. This
patch changes the interpreter to /bin/bash.

This patch adds test case 023 which tests some more cluster sizes. For
anythinger larger than 4k clusters we can't use requests that are l2_size or
more (128k for 1k clusters, 2 MB for 4k clusters, 512 MB for 64k clusters).
Therefore one of the common.pattern cases is changed and needs new expected
results for some old test cases.

Change the io_test and io_test2 functions to take the cluster size of the image
and the number of test requests to issue. Tests are changed to specify a
cluster size (usually 4k), but expected test results stay the same for now
(apart from qemu-img printing the cluster size now).
Based on a patch written by Christoph Hellwig.

We need to be able to pass "write -b" as an operation to the pattern testing
functions. Unfortunately, this contains a space character...

Pretend that a non-implemented check is always successful and thus allow
various tests that were qcow2-specific before to be generic.
