An unaligned zero write causes NULL deferencing in bdrv_co_do_pwritev. That
path is reachable from bdrv_co_write_zeroes and bdrv_aio_write_zeroes.

You can easily trigger through the former with qemu-io, as the test case added
by 61815d6e0aa. For bdrv_aio_write_zeroes, in common cases there's always a
format driver (which uses 512 alignment), so it would be much rarer to have
unaligned requests (only concerning top level here, when the request goes down
to bs->file, where for example the alignment is 4k, it would then be calling
bdrv_co_write_zeroes because it's in a coroutine).

fc3959e4669a1c fixed bdrv_co_write_zeroes but not bdrv_aio_write_zeroes.  The
lattern is the actually used one by device model. Revert the previous fix, do
it in bdrv_co_do_pwritev, to cover both paths.

v4: "if (!qiov)" -> "if (!qiov && bytes >= align)". (Paolo)

v3: Fix the case where the unaligned request is contained within the first
    block. (Paolo)
    Also update iotests 033 to cover the code path with qemu-io.

v2: Split to three aligned pwritev.

This reverts commit fc3959e4669a1c2149b91ccb05101cfc7ae1fc05.

The core write code already handles the case, so remove this
duplication.

For zero write, qiov passed by callers (qemu-io "write -z" and
scsi-disk "write same") is NULL.

Commit fc3959e466 fixed bdrv_co_write_zeroes which is the common case
for this bug, but it still exists in bdrv_aio_write_zeroes. A simpler
fix would be in bdrv_co_do_pwritev which is the NULL dereference point
and covers both cases.

So don't access it in bdrv_co_do_pwritev in this case, use three aligned
writes.
