When users use command line options like -hda, -cdrom,
or even -drive if=ide, it is up to the board initialization
routines to pick up these drives and create backing
devices for them.
Some boards, like Q35, have not been doing this.
However, there is no warning explaining why certain
drive specifications are just silently ignored,
so this function adds a check to print some warnings
to assist users in debugging these sorts of issues
in the future.
This patch will not warn about drives added with if_none,
for which it is not possible to tell in advance if
the omission of a backing device is an issue.
A warning in these cases is considered appropriate.

If the BDS's refcnt > 0, drive_del() destroys the DriveInfo, but not
the BDS. This can happen in three places:
* Device model destruction during unplug: blockdev_auto_del()
* Xen IDE unplug: pci_piix3_xen_ide_unplug()
* drive_del command when no device model is attached: do_drive_del()
The other callers of drive_del are on error paths where refcnt == 1.
If the user somehow manages to plug in a device model using a BDS that
has gone through drive_del(), the legacy configuration passed in
DriveInfo doesn't reach the device model, and automatic deletion on
unplug doesn't work. Worse, some device models such as scsi-disk
crash when DriveInfo doesn't exist.
This is theoretical; I didn't research an actual reproducer. The problem
was introduced when we replaced DriveInfo reference counting by BDS
reference counting in commit a94a3fa..fa510eb.
Fix by keeping DriveInfo alive until its BDS dies.
This affects qemu_drive_opts: now you can't reuse the same ID for new
drive options until the BDS dies. Before, you could, but since the
code always attempts to create a BDS with the same ID next, the
enclosing operation "create a new drive" failed anyway. Different
error path, same result.
Unfortunately, the fix involves use of blockdev.c stuff from block.c,
which is a layering violation. Fortunately, my forthcoming
BlockBackend work will get rid of it again.

BlockDriverStates shouldn't be affected by an unplugged guest device,
except if created with the legacy -drive command line option or the
drive_add HMP command.
Make the automatic deletion as well as cancelling of jobs conditional on
an enable_auto_del boolean that is only set in drive_init().
