block: use int64_t instead of uint64_t in driver read handlers

We are generally moving to int64_t for both offset and bytes parameters
on all io paths.

Main motivation is realization of 64-bit write_zeroes operation for
fast zeroing large disk chunks, up to the whole disk.

We chose signed type, to be consistent with off_t (which is signed) and
with possibility for signed return type (where negative value means
error).

So, convert driver read handlers parameters which are already 64bit to
signed type.

While being here, convert also flags parameter to be BdrvRequestFlags.

Now let's consider all callers. Simple

git grep '\->bdrv_\(aio\|co\)_preadv\(_part\)\?'

shows that's there three callers of driver function:

bdrv_driver_preadv() in block/io.c, passes int64_t, checked by
bdrv_check_qiov_request() to be non-negative.

qcow2_load_vmstate() does bdrv_check_qiov_request().

do_perform_cow_read() has uint64_t argument. And a lot of things in
qcow2 driver are uint64_t, so converting it is big job. But we must
not work with requests that don't satisfy bdrv_check_qiov_request(),
so let's just assert it here.

Still, the functions may be called directly, not only by drv->...
Let's check:

git grep '\.bdrv_\(aio\|co\)_preadv\(_part\)\?\s*=' | \
awk '{print $4}' | sed 's/,//' | sed 's/&//' | sort | uniq | \
while read func; do git grep "$func(" | \
grep -v "$func(BlockDriverState"; done

The only one such caller:

QEMUIOVector qiov = QEMU_IOVEC_INIT_BUF(qiov, &data, 1);
...
ret = bdrv_replace_test_co_preadv(bs, 0, 1, &qiov, 0);

in tests/unit/test-bdrv-drain.c, and it's OK obviously.

block: Use bdrv_default_perms()

bdrv_default_perms() can decide which permission profile to use based on

The blkverify driver now no longer shares the WRITE permission for the
image to verify. We thus have to adjust two places in
test-block-iothread not to take it. (Note that in theory, blkverify
should behave like quorum in this regard and share neither WRITE nor
RESIZE for both of its children. In practice, it does not really
matter, because blkverify is used only for debugging, so we might as
well keep its permissions rather liberal.)

block: Require auto-read-only for existing fallbacks

Some block drivers have traditionally changed their node to read-only
mode without asking the user. This behaviour has been marked deprecated
since 2.11, expecting users to provide an explicit read-only=on option.

Now that we have auto-read-only=on, enable these drivers to make use of
the option.

This is the only use of bdrv_set_read_only(), so we can make it a bit
more specific and turn it into a bdrv_apply_auto_read_only() that is
more convenient for drivers to use.

block: Deprecate bdrv_set_read_only() and users

bdrv_set_read_only() is used by some block drivers to override the
read-only option given by the user. This is not how read-only images
generally work in QEMU: Instead of second guessing what the user really
meant (which currently includes making an image read-only even if the
user didn't only use the default, but explicitly said read-only=off), we
should error out if we can't provide what the user requested.

This adds deprecation warnings to all callers of bdrv_set_read_only() so
that the behaviour can be corrected after the usual deprecation period.
