BlockAcctStats contains statistics about the data transferred from and
to the device; wr_highest_sector does not fit in with the rest.
Furthermore, those statistics are supposed to be specific for a certain
device and not necessarily for a BDS (see the comment above
bdrv_get_stats()); on the other hand, wr_highest_sector may be a rather
important information to know for each BDS. When BlockAcctStats is
finally removed from the BDS, we will want to keep wr_highest_sector in
the BDS.
Finally, wr_highest_sector is renamed to wr_highest_offset and given the
appropriate meaning. Externally, it is represented as an offset so there
is no point in doing something different internally. Its definition is
changed to match that in qapi/block-core.json which is "the offset after
the greatest byte written to". Doing so should not cause any harm since
if external programs tried to calculate the volume usage by
(wr_highest_offset + 512) / volume_size, after this patch they will just
assume the volume to be full slightly earlier than before.

This is the next step for decoupling block accounting functions from
BlockDriverState.
In a future commit the BlockAcctStats structure will be moved from
BlockDriverState to the device models structures.
Note that bdrv_get_stats was introduced so device models can retrieve the
BlockAcctStats structure of a BlockDriverState without being aware of it's
layout.
This function should go away when BlockAcctStats will be embedded in the device
models structures.

The middle term goal is to move the BlockAcctStats structure in the device models.
(Capturing I/O accounting statistics in the device models is good for billing)
This patch make a small step in this direction by removing a reference to BDRV.

The plan is to add new accounting metrics (latency, invalid requests, failed
requests, queue depth) and block.c is overpopulated so it will be better to work
in a separate module.
Moreover the long term plan is to have statistics in each of the BDS of the graph
for metrology purpose; this means that the device model statistics must move from
the topmost BDS to the device model.
So we need to decouple the statistic code from BlockDriverState.
This is another argument for the extraction of the code in a separate module.
