Add new block driver for the VDI format (only aio supported)



This is a new block driver written from scratch
to support the VDI format in QEMU.

VDI is the native format used by Innotek / SUN VirtualBox.

Latest changes:

* stripped down version
  (code for synchronous operations and experimental code removed)

* don't open VDI snapshot images (with uuid_link or uuid_parent)

* modified vdi_aio_cancel
