      nbd: increase default and max request sizes

      Raise the default max request size for nbd to 128KB (from 127KB) to get it
      4KB aligned.  This patch also allows the max request size to be increased
      (via /sys/block/nbd<x>/queue/max_sectors_kb) to 32MB.

QEMU's 1 MB buffers are too small to handle these requests.

This patch allocates data buffers dynamically and allows up to 32 MB per
request.

Kevin Wolf f17c90bed1 nbd: Keep hostname and port separate
The NBD block supports an URL syntax, for which a URL parser returns
separate hostname and port fields. It also supports the traditional qemu
syntax encoded in a filename. Until now, after parsing the URL to get
each piece of information, a new string is built to be fed to socket
functions.

Instead of building a string in the URL case that is immediately parsed
again, parse the string in both cases and use the QemuOpts interface to
qemu-sockets.c.
