[PATCH v2 00/13] block/export: convert vhost-user-blk-server to block exports API

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

v2:
 * Replace unix-socket=str with addr=SocketAddress for consistency with NBD and
   fd passing support. The new syntax is:
   --export vhost-user-blk,addr.type=unix,addr.path=/tmp/vhost-user-blk.sock,...
 * Make addr=SocketAddress mandatory instead of optional [Markus]
 * Update test-vhost-user-blk.c to use new syntax
 * Add patch moving vhost-user-server.h to include/
 * Add patch to use libvhost-user.a instead of compiling it multiple times

This patch series converts Coiby Xu's vhost-user-blk-server from a QOM object
to the block exports API. The block exports API provides a standard QMP and
command-line interface for managing block exports (NBD, FUSE, vhost-user-blk,
etc). A fair amount of init/shutdown code is removed because the block exports
API already takes care of that functionality.

Most of the patches are vhost-user-blk-server cleanups.

The syntax for launching qemu-storage-daemon is:

  $ qemu-storage-daemon \
      --blockdev file,node-name=drive0,filename=test.img \
      --export vhost-user-blk,node-name=drive0,id=export0,writable=on,addr.type=unix,addr.path=/tmp/vhost-user-blk.sock

QEMU can connect to the vhost-user-blk export like this:

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 \
      -M accel=kvm,memory-backend=mem \
      -m 1G \
      -object memory-backend-memfd,size=1G,id=mem \
      -cpu host \
      -chardev socket,path=/tmp/vhost-user-blk.sock,id=char0 \
      -device vhost-user-blk-pci,chardev=char0
