When a new job is created, the job ID is taken from the device name of
the BDS. This patch adds a new 'job_id' parameter to let the caller
provide one instead.
This patch also verifies that the ID is always unique and well-formed.
This causes problems in a couple of places where no ID is being set,
because the BDS does not have a device name.
In the case of test_block_job_start() (from test-blockjob-txn.c) we
can simply use this new 'job_id' parameter to set the missing ID.
In the case of img_commit() (from qemu-img.c) we still don't have the
API to make commit_active_start() set the job ID, so we solve it by
setting a default value. We'll get rid of this as soon as we extend
the API.

Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

Rather than making the dealloc visitor track of stack of pointers
remembered during visit_start_* in order to free them during
visit_end_*, it's a lot easier to just make all callers pass the
same pointer to visit_end_*. The generated code has access to the
same pointer, while all other users are doing virtual walks and
can pass NULL. The dealloc visitor is then greatly simplified.
All three visit_end_*() functions intentionally take a void**,
even though the visit_start_*() functions differ between void**,
GenericList**, and GenericAlternate**. This is done for several
reasons: when doing a virtual walk, passing NULL doesn't care
what the type is, but when doing a generated walk, we already
have to cast the caller's specific FOO* to call visit_start,
while using void** lets us use visit_end without a cast. Also,
an upcoming patch will add a clone visitor that wants to use
the same implementation for all three visit_end callbacks,
which is made easier if all three share the same signature.
For visitors with already track per-object state (the QMP visitors
via a stack, and the string visitors which do not allow nesting),
add an assertion that the caller is indeed passing the same
pointer to paired calls.

This is the final patch for converting the common I/O path to take
a BdrvChild parameter instead of BlockDriverState.
The completion of this conversion means that all users that perform I/O
on an image need to actually hold a reference (in the form of BdrvChild,
possible as part of a BlockBackend) to that image. This also protects
against inconsistent use of BlockBackend vs. BlockDriverState functions
because direct use of a BlockDriverState isn't possible any more and
blk->root is private for block-backends.c.
In addition, we can now distinguish different users in the I/O path,
and the future op blockers work is going to add assertions based on
permissions stored in BdrvChild.

the other is doing merging towards or away from zero) - but

Sector-based limits are awkward to think about; in our on-going
quest to move to byte-based interfaces, convert max_discard and
discard_alignment. Rename them, using 'pdiscard' as an aid to
track which remaining discard interfaces need conversion, and so
that the compiler will help us catch the change in semantics
across any rebased code. The BlockLimits type is now completely
byte-based; and in iscsi.c, sector_limits_lun2qemu() is no
longer needed.
pdiscard_alignment is made unsigned (we use power-of-2 alignments
as bitmasks, where unsigned is easier to think about) while
leaving max_pdiscard signed (since we still have an 'int'
interface); this is comparable to what commit cf081fc did for
write zeroes limits. We may later want to make everything an
unsigned 64-bit limit - but that requires a bigger code audit.

We were basing the advertisement of maximum discard and transfer
length off of UINT32_MAX, but since the rest of the block layer
has signed int limits on a transaction, nothing could ever reach
that maximum, and we risk overflowing an int once things are
converted to byte-based rather than sector-based limits. What's
more, we DO have a much smaller limit: both the current kernel
and qemu-nbd have a hard limit of 32M on a read or write
transaction, and while they may also permit up to a full 32 bits
on a discard transaction, the upstream NBD protocol is proposing
wording that without any explicit advertisement otherwise,
clients should limit ALL requests to the same limits as read and
write, even though the other requests do not actually require as
many bytes across the wire. So the better limit to tell the
block layer is 32M for both values.
Behavior doesn't actually change with this patch (the block layer
is currently ignoring the max_transfer advertisements); but when
that problem is fixed in a later series, this patch will prevent
the exposure of a latent bug.
