  migration: move process_incoming_migration to a coroutine (2012-11-02 
18:35:08 +0100)

With these patches, the monitor and the NBD server are responsive during
migration.

The first ten patches are just cleanups, generalizing some parts of
QEMUFile and improving the way migration sockets are closed.

The last two actually implement the feature.  They are the opposite
change of the nonblocking->blocking change that you implemented for the
migration thread.  However, the change is much simpler because we have
no timers, and because of the use of coroutines.

Without coroutines (and as in non-threaded migration), you have
to proceed in two steps: first collect data in a buffer, then
write it.  This lets you handle EAGAIN only at precise points in
buffered_flush/buffered_put_buffer, so that you can restart writing
in migrate_fd_put_notify.  This "checkpointing" is the reason why
QEMUFileBuffered exists.  With coroutines, you can just stop whenever
you want with qemu_coroutine_yield.  As soon as select tells you that
you can read, you'll re-enter directly in qemu_get_buffer, read more
data and pass it to the loading routines.

      migration: add qemu_get_fd
      migration: replace qemu_stdio_fd with qemu_get_fd
      migration: clean up server sockets and handlers before invoking 
process_incoming_migration
      migration: use migrate_fd_close in migrate_fd_cleanup
