NBD reconnect logic considers the error code from the functions that
read NBD messages to tell if reconnect should be attempted or not: it is
attempted on -EIO, otherwise the client transitions to NBD_CLIENT_QUIT
state (see nbd_channel_error). This error code is propagated from the
primitives like nbd_read.
The problem, however, is that nbd_read itself turns every error into -1
rather than -EIO. As a result, if the NBD server happens to die while
sending the message, the client in QEMU receives less data than it
expects, considers it as a fatal error, and wouldn't attempt
reestablishing the connection.
Fix it by turning every negative return from qio_channel_read_all into
-EIO returned from nbd_read. Apparently that was the original behavior,
but got broken later. Also adjust nbd_readXX to follow.

Really looks like a bug in e6798f06a6: it changes error code from -EIO to -1
without any reasoning.
