Paolo Bonzini f55ba8018c block: add more commands to preconfig mode
Of the block device commands, those that are available outside system
emulators do not require a fully constructed machine by definition.
Allow running them before machine initialization has concluded.

Of the ones that are available inside system emulation, allow querying
the PR managers, and setting up accounting and throttling.

# Since 7.1 bitmap may be specified by node/name pair.

# SocketAddress types are supported. Passed fds must be UNIX domain
# sockets.

# @allow-other: If this is off, only qemu's user is allowed access to
# this export. That cannot be changed even with chmod or
# chown.
# Enabling this option will allow other users access to
# the export with the FUSE mount option "allow_other".
# Note that using allow_other as a non-root user requires
# user_allow_other to be enabled in the global fuse.conf
