This patch series adds support for timers attached to an AioContext clock
which get called within aio_poll.

In doing so it removes alarm timers and moves to use ppoll where possible.

This patch set 'sort of' passes make check (see below for caveat)
including a new test harness for the aio timers, but has not been
tested much beyond that. In particular, the win32 changes have not
even been compile tested. Equally, alterations to use_icount
are untested.

Caveat: I have had to alter tests/test-aio.c so the following error
no longer occurs.

ERROR:tests/test-aio.c:346:test_wait_event_notifier_noflush: assertion failed: 
(aio_poll(ctx, false))

As gar as I can tell, this check was incorrect, in that it checking
aio_poll makes progress when in fact it should not make progress. I
fixed an issue where aio_poll was (as far as I can tell) wrongly
returning true on a timeout, and that generated this error.

Note also the comment on patch 15 in relation to a possible bug
in cpus.c.

Changes since v5:
* Rebase onto master (b9ac5d9)
* Fix spacing in typedef QEMUTimerList
* Rename 'QEMUClocks' extern to 'qemu_clocks'

Changes since v4:
* Rename qemu_timerlist_ functions to timer_list (per Paolo Bonzini)
* Rename qemu_timer_.*timerlist.* to timer_ (per Paolo Bonzini)
* Use enum for QEMUClockType
* Put clocks into an array; remove global variables
* Introduce QEMUTimerListGroup - a timeliest of each type
* Add a QEMUTimerListGroup to AioContext
* Use a callback on timer modification, rather than binding in
  AioContext into the timeliest
* Make cpus.c iterate over all timerlists when it does a notify
* Make cpus.c icount timeout use soonest timeout
  across all timerlists

Changes since v3:
* Split up QEMUClock and QEMUClock list
* Improve commenting
* Fix comment in vl.c
* Change test/test-aio.c to reflect correct behaviour in aio_poll.

Changes since v2:
* Reordered to remove alarm timers last
* Added prctl(PR_SET_TIMERSLACK, 1, ...)
* Renamed qemu_g_poll_ns to qemu_poll_ns
* Moved declaration of above & drop glib types
* Do not use a global list of qemu clocks
* Add AioContext * to QEMUClock
* Split up conversion to use ppoll and timers
* Indentation fix
* Fix aio_win32.c aio_poll to return progress
* aio_notify / qemu_notify when timers are modified
* change comment in deprecation of clock options
