Kevin Wolf 33a610c398 block: Involve block drivers in permission granting
In many cases, the required permissions of one node on its children
depend on what its parents require from it. For example, the raw format
or most filter drivers only need to request consistent reads if that's
something that one of their parents wants.

In order to achieve this, this patch introduces two new BlockDriver
callbacks. The first one lets drivers first check (recursively) whether
the requested permissions can be set; the second one actually sets the
new permission bitmask.

Also add helper functions that drivers can use in their implementation
of the callbacks to update their permissions on a specific child.
