ce51755109 block_util: Avoid intermediate completion queue allocation
Rather than aggregate the completion list into an intermediate vector
instead adjust the API to provide one completion item at a time.

With DHAT this shows the number of heap allocations has decreased.

Before:

    dhat: Total:     623,852 bytes in 8,157 blocks

After:

    dhat: Total:     380,444 bytes in 3,469 blocks

e7a51cde78 block_util: Pass a reference to the slice of iovecs
Rather than passing the vector of iovecs for the I/O to act on pass a
reference to the slice of values inside them. This removes the explicit
container type from the API allowing the use of e.g. SmallVec.

b2e5dbaecb block_util, vmm: Add fixed VHD asynchronous implementation
This commit adds the asynchronous support for fixed VHD disk files.

It introduces FixedVhd as a new ImageType, moving the image type
detection to the block_util crate (instead of qcow crate).

It creates a new vhd module in the block_util crate in order to handle
VHD footer, following the VHD specification.

It creates a new fixed_vhd_async module in the block_util crate to
implement the asynchronous version of fixed VHD disk file. It relies on
io_uring.
