iohandler.c shares the same interface with aio, but with duplicated
code. It's better to rebase iohandler, also because that aio is a
more friendly interface to multi-threads.
Create a global AioContext instance and let its GSource handle the
iohandler events.

This function will be used to avoid recursive locking of the iothread lock
whenever address_space_rw/ld*/st* are called with the BQL held, which is
almost always the case.
Tracking whether the iothread is owned is very cheap (just use a TLS
variable) but requires some care because now the lock must always be
taken with qemu_mutex_lock_iothread(). Previously this wasn't the case.
Outside TCG mode this is not a problem. In TCG mode, we need to be
careful and avoid the "prod out of compiled code" step if already
in a VCPU thread. This is easily done with a check on current_cpu,
i.e. qemu_in_vcpu_thread().
Hopefully, multithreaded TCG will get rid of the whole logic to kick
VCPUs whenever an I/O event occurs!

On a system with a low limit of open files the initialization
of the event notifier could fail and QEMU exits without printing any
error information to the user.
The problem can be easily reproduced by enforcing a low limit of open
files and start QEMU with enough I/O threads to hit this limit.
The same problem raises, without the creation of I/O threads, while
QEMU initializes the main event loop by enforcing an even lower limit of
open files.
This commit adds an error message on failure:
# qemu [...] -object iothread,id=iothread0 -object iothread,id=iothread1
qemu: Failed to initialize event notifier: Too many open files in system

It is very useful to get the main loop AioContext, which is a static
variable in main-loop.c.
I'm not sure whether qemu_get_aio_context() will be necessary in the
future once devices focus on using their own AioContext instead of the
main loop AioContext, but for now it allows us to refactor code to
support multiple AioContext while actually passing the main loop
AioContext.
