rev1 [PATCH] support colon in filenames

[Ram Pai <linuxram@us.ibm.com>]

Problem: It is impossible to feed filenames with the character colon because
qemu interprets such names as a protocol. For example a filename scsi:0, is
interpreted as a protocol by name "scsi".

This patch allows user to espace colon characters. For example the above
filename can now be expressed either as 'scsi\:0' or as file:scsi:0

anything following the "file:" tag is interpreted verbatim. However if "file:"
tag is omitted then any colon characters in the string must be escaped using
backslash.

Here are couple of examples:

scsi\:0\:abc is a local file scsi:0:abc
http\://myweb is a local file by name http://myweb
file:scsi:0:abc is a local file scsi:0:abc
file:http://myweb is a local file by name http://myweb

Changelog w.r.t to iteration 1:
   1) removes flexibility added to nbd semantics  eg -- nbd:\::9999
   2) introduce the "file:" protocol to indicate local file
 
NOTE: no code changes are needed to handle commas in a filename. As
always a comma has to be escaped by a preceding comma.
