hw/virtio: Fix packed virtqueue flush used_idx

In the event of writing many chains of descriptors, the device must
write just the id of the last buffer in the descriptor chain, skip
forward the number of descriptors in the chain, and then repeat the
operations for the rest of chains.

Current QEMU code writes all the buffer ids consecutively, and then
skips all the buffers altogether. This is a bug, and can be reproduced
with a VirtIONet device with _F_MRG_RXBUB and without
_F_INDIRECT_DESC:

If a virtio-net device has the VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF feature
but not the VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC feature,
'VirtIONetQueue->rx_vq' will use the merge feature
to store data in multiple 'elems'.
The 'num_buffers' in the virtio header indicates how many elements are merged.
If the value of 'num_buffers' is greater than 1,
all the merged elements will be filled into the descriptor ring.
The 'idx' of the elements should be the value of 'vq->used_idx' plus 'ndescs'.

virtio: Re-enable notifications after drain

During drain, we do not care about virtqueue notifications, which is why
we remove the handlers on it. When removing those handlers, whether vq
notifications are enabled or not depends on whether we were in polling
mode or not; if not, they are enabled (by default); if so, they have
been disabled by the io_poll_start callback.

Because we do not care about those notifications after removing the
handlers, this is fine. However, we have to explicitly ensure they are
enabled when re-attaching the handlers, so we will resume receiving
notifications. We do this in virtio_queue_aio_attach_host_notifier*().
If such a function is called while we are in a polling section,
attaching the notifiers will then invoke the io_poll_start callback,
re-disabling notifications.

Because we will always miss virtqueue updates in the drained section, we
also need to poll the virtqueue once after attaching the notifiers.

virtio: use defer_call() in virtio_irqfd_notify()

virtio-blk and virtio-scsi invoke virtio_irqfd_notify() to send Used
Buffer Notifications from an IOThread. This involves an eventfd
write(2) syscall. Calling this repeatedly when completing multiple I/O
requests in a row is wasteful.

Use the defer_call() API to batch together virtio_irqfd_notify() calls
made during thread pool (aio=threads), Linux AIO (aio=native), and
io_uring (aio=io_uring) completion processing.

Behavior is unchanged for emulated devices that do not use
defer_call_begin()/defer_call_end() since defer_call() immediately
invokes the callback when called outside a
defer_call_begin()/defer_call_end() region.

fio rw=randread bs=4k iodepth=64 numjobs=8 IOPS increases by ~9% with a
single IOThread and 8 vCPUs. iodepth=1 decreases by ~1% but this could
be noise. Detailed performance data and configuration specifics are

virtio: don't zero out memory region cache for indirect descriptors

Lots of virtio functions that are on a hot path in data transmission
are initializing indirect descriptor cache at the point of stack
allocation. It's a 112 byte structure that is getting zeroed out on
each call adding unnecessary overhead. It's going to be correctly
initialized later via special init function. The only reason to
actually initialize right away is the ability to safely destruct it.
Replacing a designated initializer with a function to only initialize
what is necessary.

Removal of the unnecessary stack initializations improves throughput
of virtio-net devices in terms of 64B packets per second by 6-14 %
depending on the case. Tested with a proposed af-xdp network backend
and a dpdk testpmd application in the guest, but should be beneficial
for other virtio devices as well.

qmp: remove virtio_list, search QOM tree instead

The virtio_list duplicates information about virtio devices that already
exist in the QOM composition tree. Instead of creating this list of
realized virtio devices, search the QOM composition tree instead.

recursively search the QOM composition tree for devices of type
'TYPE_VIRTIO_DEVICE'. The device is also checked to ensure it's
realized.
