aio: add missing aio_notify() to aio_enable_external()

The main loop uses aio_disable_external()/aio_enable_external() to
temporarily disable processing of external AioContext clients like
device emulation.

This allows monitor commands to quiesce I/O and prevent the guest from
submitting new requests while a monitor command is in progress.

The aio_enable_external() API is currently broken when an IOThread is in
aio_poll() waiting for fd activity when the main loop re-enables
external clients.  Incrementing ctx->external_disable_cnt does not wake
the IOThread from ppoll(2) so fd processing remains suspended and leads
to unresponsive emulated devices.

This patch adds an aio_notify() call to aio_enable_external() so the
IOThread is kicked out of ppoll(2) and will re-arm the file descriptors.

The bug can be reproduced as follows:

  $ qemu -M accel=kvm -m 1024 \
         -object iothread,id=iothread0 \
         -device virtio-scsi-pci,iothread=iothread0,id=virtio-scsi-pci0 \
         -drive if=none,id=drive0,aio=native,cache=none,format=raw,file=test.img \
         -device scsi-hd,id=scsi-hd0,drive=drive0 \
         -qmp tcp::5555,server,nowait

  $ scripts/qmp/qmp-shell localhost:5555
  (qemu) blockdev-snapshot-sync device=drive0 snapshot-file=sn1.qcow2
         mode=absolute-paths format=qcow2

After blockdev-snapshot-sync completes the SCSI disk will be
unresponsive.  This leads to request timeouts inside the guest.
