[PATCH v3 03/11] block: Let bdrv_co_is_zero_fast consolidate adjacent extents

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

Some BDS drivers have a cap on how much block status they can supply
in one query (for example, NBD talking to an older server cannot
inspect more than 4G per query; and qcow2 tends to cap its answers
rather than cross a cluster boundary of an L1 table).  Although the
existing callers of bdrv_co_is_zero_fast are not passing in that large
of a 'bytes' parameter, an upcoming caller wants to query the entire
image at once, and will thus benefit from being able to treat adjacent
zero regions in a coalesced manner, rather than claiming the region is
non-zero merely because pnum was truncated and didn't match the
incoming bytes.

While refactoring this into a loop, note that there is no need to
assign pnum prior to calling bdrv_co_common_block_status_above() (it
is guaranteed to be assigned deeper in the callstack).
