[Qemu-block] [PATCH v11 22/31] block: Add BlockDriver.bdrv_gather_child_options

[Max Reitz]

Some follow-up patches will rework the way bs->full_open_options is
refreshed in bdrv_refresh_filename(). The new implementation will remove
the need for the block drivers' bdrv_refresh_filename() implementations
to set bs->full_open_options; instead, it will be generic and use static
information from each block driver.

However, by implementing bdrv_gather_child_options(), block drivers will
still be able to override the way the full_open_options of their
children are incorporated into their own.

We need to implement this function for VMDK because we have to prevent
the generic implementation from gathering the options of all children:
It is not possible to specify options for the extents through the
runtime options.

For quorum, the child names that would be used by the generic
implementation and the ones that we actually (currently) want to use
differ. See quorum_gather_child_options() for more information.

Note that both of these are cases which are not ideal: In case of VMDK
it would probably be nice to be able to specify options for all extents.
In case of quorum, the current runtime option structure is simply broken
and needs to be fixed (but that is left for another patch).
