This series introduces a new BlockDriver interface, which will hopefully be the
final one, or at least good enough for another few years: .bdrv_preadv/pwritev.
It is based on coroutines, vectored, has flags and uses a byte granularity.
This is now the preferred interface for new drivers.

All drivers still using the legacy interface .bdrv_read/write are converted to
the new interface and the emulation code we had for the old interface is
removed. Most of the drivers become zero-copy with these patches as they are
vectored now; only vvfat continues to allocate a bounce buffer.

The less obscure formats (vmdk, vdi, vpc) also natively support byte-aligned
requests now. The block layer is still enforcing a minimal alignment of 512, so
this isn't actually used yet, but in a next step, we can lift this restriction
for drivers that implement .bdrv_preadv/pwritev.

v2:
- Patch 3 ('block: Support AIO drivers in bdrv_driver_preadv/pwritev()')
  Removed bdrv_co_io_em in trace-event after removing its user [Eric]

- Patch 4 ('block: Rename bdrv_co_do_preadv/writev to bdrv_co_preadv/writev')
  Fixed some indentations [Eric]

- Patches 6, 7, 8, 12 (bochs, cloop, dmg, vmdk):
  Replaced returns by goto fail to fix missing unlock and qiov leaks [Stefan]

- Patch 13 ('vmdk: Implement .bdrv_co_pwritev() interface')
  Use g_free() instead of free() [Stefan]
