This series adds for point-in-time snapshot NBD exporting based on
blockdev-backup (variant of drive-backup with existing device as target).

We get a thin point-in-time snapshot by COW mechanism of drive-backup, and
export it through built in NBD server. The steps are as below:

 1. (SHELL) qemu-img create -f qcow2 BACKUP.qcow2 <source size here>

    (Alternatively we can use -o backing_file=RUNNING-VM.img to omit explicitly
    providing the size by ourselves, but it's risky because RUNNING-VM.qcow2 is
    used r/w by guest. Whether or not setting backing file in the image file
    doesn't matter, as we are going to override the backing hd in the next
    step)

 2. (QMP) blockdev-add backing=source-drive file.driver=file file.filename=BACKUP.qcow2 id=target0 if=none driver=qcow2

    (where source-drive is the running BlockDriverState name for
    RUNNING-VM.img. This patch implements "backing=" option to override
    backing_hd for added drive)

 3. (QMP) blockdev-backup device=source-drive sync=none target=target0

    (this is the QMP command introduced by this series, which use a named
    device as target of drive-backup)

 4. (QMP) nbd-server-add device=target0

When image fleecing done:

 1. (QMP) block-job-cancel device=source-drive

 2. (HMP) drive_del target0

 3. (SHELL) rm BACKUP.qcow2

v14: Address Benoit's comments and rebase to kevin's block tree:

    02: Explicit initialize op_blockers with QLIST_INIT.
    05: Fix sizeof(bs->backing_format) passed to pstrcpy().


Fam Zheng (14):
  block: Add BlockOpType enum
  block: Introduce op_blockers to BlockDriverState
  block: Replace in_use with operation blocker
  block: Move op_blocker check from block_job_create to its caller
  block: Add bdrv_set_backing_hd()
  block: Add backing_blocker in BlockDriverState
  block: Parse "backing" option to reference existing BDS
  block: Support dropping active in bdrv_drop_intermediate
  stream: Use bdrv_drop_intermediate and drop close_unused_images
  qmp: Add command 'blockdev-backup'
  block: Allow backup on referenced named BlockDriverState
  block: Add blockdev-backup to transaction
  qemu-iotests: Test blockdev-backup in 055
