block/nbd: use non-blocking connect: fix vm hang on connect()

block/nbd: use non-blocking connect: fix vm hang on connect()

This makes nbd's connection_co yield during reconnects, so that
reconnect doesn't block the main thread. This is very important in
case of an unavailable nbd server host: connect() call may take a long
time, blocking the main thread (and due to reconnect, it will hang
again and again with small gaps of working time during pauses between
connection attempts).

Realization notes:

 - We don't want to implement non-blocking connect() over non-blocking
 socket, because getaddrinfo() doesn't have portable non-blocking
 realization anyway, so let's just use a thread for both getaddrinfo()
 and connect().

 - We can't use qio_channel_socket_connect_async (which behaves
 similarly and starts a thread to execute connect() call), as it's relying
 on someone iterating main loop (g_main_loop_run() or something like
 this), which is not always the case.

 - We can't use thread_pool_submit_co API, as thread pool waits for all
 threads to finish (but we don't want to wait for blocking reconnect
 attempt on shutdown.

 So, we just create the thread by hand. Some additional difficulties
 are:

 - We want our connect to avoid blocking drained sections and aio context
 switches. To achieve this, we make it possible to "cancel" synchronous
 wait for the connect (which is a coroutine yield actually), still,
 the thread continues in background, and if successful, its result may be
 reused on next reconnect attempt.

 - We don't want to wait for reconnect on shutdown, so there is
 CONNECT_THREAD_RUNNING_DETACHED thread state, which means that the block
 layer is no longer interested in a result, and thread should close new
 connected socket on finish and free the state.

How to reproduce the bug, fixed with this commit:

1. Create an image on node1:
   qemu-img create -f qcow2 xx 100M

2. Start NBD server on node1:
   qemu-nbd xx

3. Start vm with second nbd disk on node2, like this:

  ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -drive \
    file=/work/images/cent7.qcow2 -drive file=nbd+tcp://192.168.100.2 \
    -vnc :0 -qmp stdio -m 2G -enable-kvm -vga std

4. Access the vm through vnc (or some other way?), and check that NBD
   drive works:

   dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null bs=1M count=10

   - the command should succeed.

5. Now, let's trigger nbd-reconnect loop in Qemu process. For this:

5.1 Kill NBD server on node1

5.2 run "dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null bs=1M count=10" in the guest
    again. The command should fail and a lot of error messages about
    failing disk may appear as well.

    Now NBD client driver in Qemu tries to reconnect.
    Still, VM works well.

6. Make node1 unavailable on NBD port, so connect() from node2 will
   last for a long time:

   On node1 (Note, that 10809 is just a default NBD port):

   sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 10809 -j DROP

   After some time the guest hangs, and you may check in gdb that Qemu
   hangs in connect() call, issued from the main thread. This is the
   BUG.

7. Don't forget to drop iptables rule from your node1:

   sudo iptables -D INPUT -p tcp --dport 10809 -j DROP
