The vhd module is the implementation of the VHD specification, which is
why it is important to unit test it.

Based on the synchronous RAW file implementation present in the qcow
crate, we created a new raw_sync module in block_util that ports this
synchronous implementation to the AsyncIo trait.
The point is to reuse virtio-blk asynchronous implementation for both
synchronous and asynchronous backends.

Both DiskFile and AsyncIo traits are introduced to allow all kind of
files (RAW, QCOW, VHD) to be able to handle asynchronous access to the
underlying file.

to point to the latest version but continue to use our patched version
due to the fix for #1258

By adding a new io_uring feature gate, we let the user the possibility
to choose if he wants to enable the io_uring improvements or not.
Since the io_uring feature depends on the availability on recent host
kernels, it's better if we leave it off for now.
As soon as our CI will have support for a kernel 5.6 with all the
features needed from io_uring, we'll enable this feature gate
permanently.
