Test valid power of two alignment, layout compatibility,

DiskTopology::probe() returned a hardcoded 512 for regular files,
causing O_DIRECT failures on volumes with larger block sizes
(e.g. 4K).
Use statx(STATX_DIOALIGN) (Linux >= 6.1) to query the real per file
DIO memory and offset alignment. Unlike fstatvfs().f_bsize, which
only returns the filesystem preferred I/O block size,
STATX_DIOALIGN reports the true DIO constraints accounting for the
filesystem, underlying block device, and any stacking (loop, dm,
etc.).

O_DIRECT requires buffer addresses to be aligned to the backend
device's logical block size. The existing bounce buffer logic in
execute_async() hardcodes SECTOR_SIZE (512) for the alignment check
and bounce buffer allocation. This is insufficient for devices with
a 4096-byte logical block size, where misaligned buffers cause
-EINVAL from the host kernel.
Add an alignment() method to the AsyncIo trait that returns the
backend's logical block size, defaulting to SECTOR_SIZE. The three
raw I/O backends (io_uring, AIO, synchronous) probe the device
topology via DiskTopology::probe() at creation time and return the
actual logical block size. All image format backends would simply
use the default value of 512 bytes since their underlying are
not block devices.
execute_async() now queries disk_image.alignment() instead of using
the hardcoded SECTOR_SIZE

There is no non destructive readonly ioctl to query block device
discard or write zeroes capabilities. BLKZEROOUT is guaranteed to
succeed via kernel software fallback. BLKDISCARD may fail at runtime
with EOPNOTSUPP on devices that lack trim support, but the error
propagates to the guest as VIRTIO_BLK_S_IOERR and well behaved
guests handle it gracefully.

As well as rejecting writes to sector 0 in the case of raw files where
the user hasn't specified the image_type also reject virtio requests of
type discard and write_zeroes.

Add an image_type to DiskConfig to specify the image type. If none is
specified autodetect the image type but disable potentially unsafe
behaviour in the QCOW2 backend by disabling the backing file support.
If the image type is autodetected then fix it in the config so that it
will be persistant across reboots and migrations/snapshot & restores.
This also handles the case where the image type was not specified as
part of the disk configuration.

Add VIRTIO_BLK_T_DISCARD and VIRTIO_BLK_T_WRITE_ZEROES request types.

When sparse=false is configured, preallocate the entire raw disk file
at startup using fallocate(). This provides space reservation and
reduces fragmentation.
Only applies to raw disks. QCOW2/VHD/VHDX formats manage their own
allocation.

Add functions to probe whether a file or block device actually
supports PUNCH_HOLE and ZERO_RANGE operations at runtime. The
probe is performed at file open time by testing the operations
at EOF with a zero-length range, which is a safe no-op.

This helps to uncover expensive and needless clones in the code base.
For example, I prevented extensive clones in the snapshot path where
(nested) BTreeMap's have been cloned over and over again. Further,
the lint helps devs to much better reason about the ownership of
parameters.
All of these changes have been done manually with the necessary
caution. A few structs that are cheap to clone are now `copy` so that
this lint won't trigger for them.
I didn't enable the lint so far as it is a massive rabbit hole and
needs much more fixes. Nevertheless, it is very useful.

Consuming `&Arc<T>` as argument is almost always an antipattern as it
hides whether the callee is going to take over (shared) ownership
(by .clone()) or not. Instead, it is better to consume `&dyn T` or
`Arc<dyn T>` to be more explicit. This commit cleans up the code.
The change is very mechanic and was very easy to implement across the
code base.

Cache and batch IO requests after parsing all
items in the queue, improving performance—especially
for small block sizes—by reducing per-request overhead.
Introduced two methods in the AsyncIo trait for batch
submission, with implementation in the raw disk backend.
This method should be called during/after parsing all block IO requests
in the available queue. If the batch submission is not enabled, by
default it does the old way of submitting requests.

This streamlines the code base to follow best practices for
error handling in Rust: Each error struct implements
std::error::Error (most due via thiserror::Error derive macro)
and sets its source accordingly.
This allows future work that nicely prints the error chains,
for example.
So far, the convention is that each error prints its
sub error as part of its Display::fmt() impl.

The size was set to one because without VIRTIO_BLK_F_SEG_MAX, the guest
only used one data descriptor per request.
The value 32 is empirically derived from booting a guest. This value

The original code relied on the default `read_vectored` or
`write_vectored` implementations from the standard library.
The default implementation of those functions only uses the first
non-empty buffer. That's not correct when there are more than one
buffers.

Historically the Cloud Hypervisor coding style has been to ensure that
all imports are ordered and placed in a single group. Unfortunately
cargo fmt has no support for ensuring that all imports are in a single
group so if whitespace lines were added as part of the import statements
then they would only be odered correctly in the group.
By adopting "group_imports="StdExternalCrate" we can enforce a style
where imports are placed in at most three groups for std, external
crates and the crate itself. Choosing a style enforceable by the tooling
reduces the reviewer burden.
