Calling job_pause_point() while holding the graph reader lock
potentially results in a deadlock: bdrv_graph_wrlock() first drains
everything, including the mirror job, which pauses it. The job is only
unpaused at the end of the drain section, which is when the graph writer
lock has been successfully taken. However, if the job happens to be
paused at a pause point where it still holds the reader lock, the writer
lock can't be taken as long as the job is still paused.
Mark job_pause_point() as GRAPH_UNLOCKED and fix mirror accordingly.

Additionally to the scoreboard, we define a qemu_plugin_u64, which is a
simple struct holding a pointer to a scoreboard, and a given offset.
This allows to have a scoreboard containing structs, without having to
bring offset to operate on a specific field.
Since most of the plugins are simply collecting a sum of per-cpu values,
qemu_plugin_u64 directly support this operation as well.
All inline operations defined later will use a qemu_plugin_u64 as input.
New functions:
- qemu_plugin_u64_add
- qemu_plugin_u64_get
- qemu_plugin_u64_set
- qemu_plugin_u64_sum
New macros:
- qemu_plugin_scoreboard_u64
- qemu_plugin_scoreboard_u64_in_struct

with how many cpus are launched.
This API will be used by new inline functions but callbacks can benefit
from this as well. This way, they can operate without a global lock for
simple operations.
At any point during execution, any scoreboard will be dimensioned with
at least qemu_plugin_num_vcpus entries.

The new mapped-ram stream format uses a file transport and puts ram
pages in the migration file at their respective offsets and can be
done in parallel by using the pwritev system call which takes iovecs
and an offset.
Add support to enabling the new format along with multifd to make use
of the threading and page handling already in place.
This requires multifd to stop sending headers and leaving the stream
format to the mapped-ram code. When it comes time to write the data, we
need to call a version of qio_channel_write that can take an offset.
Usage on HMP is:
(qemu) stop
(qemu) migrate_set_capability multifd on
(qemu) migrate_set_capability mapped-ram on
(qemu) migrate_set_parameter max-bandwidth 0
(qemu) migrate_set_parameter multifd-channels 8

The __linux__ version of qemu_chr_open_pp_fd() tries to claim the
parport device with a PPCLAIM ioctl(). On success, it stores the file
descriptor in the chardev object, and returns success. On failure, it
closes the file descriptor, and returns failure.
chardev_new() then passes the Chardev to object_unref(). This duly
calls char_parallel_finalize(), which closes the file descriptor
stored in the chardev object. Since qemu_chr_open_pp_fd() didn't
store it, it's still zero, so this closes standard input. Ooopsie.
To demonstate, add a unit test. With the bug above unfixed, running
this test closes standard input. char_hotswap_test() happens to run
next. It opens a socket, duly gets file descriptor 0, and since it
tests for success with > 0 instead of >= 0, it fails.
The new unit test needs to be conditional exactly like the chardev it
tests. Since the condition is rather complicated, steal the solution
from the serial chardev: define HAVE_CHARDEV_PARALLEL in qemu/osdep.h.
This also permits simplifying chardev/meson.build a bit.
The bug fix is easy enough: store the file descriptor, and leave
closing it to char_parallel_finalize().
The next commit will fix char_hotswap_test()'s test for success.

QEMU initializes preallocated backend memory as the objects are parsed from
the command line. This is not optimal in some cases (e.g. memory spanning
multiple NUMA nodes) because the memory objects are initialized in series.
Allow the initialization to occur in parallel (asynchronously). In order to
ensure optimal thread placement, asynchronous initialization requires prealloc
context threads to be in use.

The const_le64() macro introduced in commit 845d80a8c7 turns out
to have a bug which means that on big-endian systems the compiler
complains if the argument isn't already a 64-bit type. This hasn't
caused a problem yet, because there are no in-tree uses, but it
means it's not possible for anybody to add one without it failing CI.
This example is from an attempted use of it with the argument '0',
from the s390 CI runner's gcc:
../block/blklogwrites.c: In function ‘blk_log_writes_co_do_log’:

Fix this by making all the constants in the macro have the ULL
suffix. This will cause them all to be 64-bit integers, which means
the result of the logical & will also be an unsigned 64-bit type,
even if the input to the macro is a smaller type, and so the shifts
will be in range.

The Big QEMU Lock (BQL) has many names and they are confusing. The
actual QemuMutex variable is called qemu_global_mutex but it's commonly
referred to as the BQL in discussions and some code comments. The
locking APIs, however, are called qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() and
qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread().
The "iothread" name is historic and comes from when the main thread was
split into into KVM vcpu threads and the "iothread" (now called the main
loop thread). I have contributed to the confusion myself by introducing
a separate --object iothread, a separate concept unrelated to the BQL.
The "iothread" name is no longer appropriate for the BQL. Rename the
locking APIs to:
- void bql_lock(void)
- void bql_unlock(void)
- bool bql_locked(void)
There are more APIs with "iothread" in their names. Subsequent patches
will rename them. There are also comments and documentation that will be
updated in later patches.

The vhost-user-blk export implement AioContext switches in its drain
implementation. This means that on drain_begin, it detaches the server
from its AioContext and on drain_end, attaches it again and schedules
the server->co_trip coroutine in the updated AioContext.
However, nothing guarantees that server->co_trip is even safe to be
scheduled. Not only is it unclear that the coroutine is actually in a
state where it can be reentered externally without causing problems, but
with two consecutive drains, it is possible that the scheduled coroutine
didn't have a chance yet to run and trying to schedule an already
scheduled coroutine a second time crashes with an assertion failure.
Following the model of NBD, this commit makes the vhost-user-blk export
shut down server->co_trip during drain so that resuming the export means
creating and scheduling a new coroutine, which is always safe.
There is one exception: If the drain call didn't poll (for example, this
happens in the context of bdrv_graph_wrlock()), then the coroutine
didn't have a chance to shut down. However, in this case the AioContext
can't have changed; changing the AioContext always involves a polling
drain. So in this case we can simply assert that the AioContext is
unchanged and just leave the coroutine running or wake it up if it has
yielded to wait for the AioContext to be attached again.

It's arguably a bug in Clang since we already use __builtin_assume_aligned()
to tell the compiler that the pointer is properly aligned. But according to
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/69146 it seems like the Clang
