This patch implements the read/write state machine. Operations are
fully asynchronous and multiple operations may be active at any time.
Allocating writes lock tables to ensure metadata updates do not
interfere with each other. If two allocating writes need to update the
same L2 table they will run sequentially. If two allocating writes need
to update different L2 tables they will run in parallel.

This patch adds code to look up data cluster offsets in the image via
the L1/L2 tables. The L2 tables are writethrough cached in memory for
performance (each read/write requires a lookup so it is essential to
cache the tables).
With cluster lookup code in place it is possible to implement
bdrv_is_allocated() to query the number of contiguous
allocated/unallocated clusters.

This patch introduces the qed on-disk layout and implements image
creation. Later patches add read/write and other functionality.
