This series introduces block layer API for copy offloading and makes use of it
in qemu-img convert.

For now we implemented the operation in local file protocol with
copy_file_range(2).  Besides that it's possible to add similar to iscsi, nfs
and potentially more.

As far as its usage goes, in addition to qemu-img convert, we can emulate
offloading in scsi-disk (handle EXTENDED COPY command), and use the API in
block jobs too.
