39ca463e81 trace: enable tracing in qemu-nbd
Please note, trace_init_backends() must be called in the final process,
i.e. after daemonization. This is necessary to keep tracing thread in
the proper process.

77c9aaefd7 qemu-nbd: allow specifying image as a set of options args
Currently qemu-nbd allows an image filename to be passed on the
command line, but unless using the JSON format, it does not have
a way to set any options except the format eg

   qemu-nbd https://127.0.0.1/images/centos7.iso
   qemu-nbd /home/berrange/demo.qcow2

This adds a --image-opts arg that indicates that the positional
filename should be interpreted as a full option string, not
just a filename.

   qemu-nbd --image-opts driver=https,url=https://127.0.0.1/images,sslverify=off
   qemu-nbd --image-opts driver=file,filename=/home/berrange/demo.qcow2

This flag is mutually exclusive with the '-f' flag.

145614a112 nbd: enable use of TLS with qemu-nbd server
This modifies the qemu-nbd program so that it is possible to
request the use of TLS with the server. It simply adds a new
command line option --tls-creds which is used to provide the
ID of a QCryptoTLSCreds object previously created via the
--object command line option.

For example

  qemu-nbd --object tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,endpoint=server,\
                    dir=/home/berrange/security/qemutls \
           --tls-creds tls0 \
           --exportname default

TLS requires the new style NBD protocol, so if no export name
is set (via --export-name), then we use the default NBD protocol
export name ""

TLS is only supported when using an IPv4/IPv6 socket listener.
It is not possible to use with UNIX sockets, which includes
when connecting the NBD server to a host device.

3d4b2f9c94 nbd: allow setting of an export name for qemu-nbd server
The qemu-nbd server currently always uses the old style protocol
since it never sets any export name. This is a problem because
future TLS support will require use of the new style protocol
negotiation.

This adds "--exportname NAME" / "-x NAME" arguments to qemu-nbd
which allow the user to set an explicit export name. When an
export name is set the server will always use the new style
NBD protocol.

Allow creation of user creatable object types with qemu-nbd
via a new --object command line arg. This will be used to supply
passwords and/or encryption keys to the various block driver
backends via the recently added 'secret' object type.

 # printf letmein > mypasswd.txt
 # qemu-nbd --object secret,id=sec0,file=mypasswd.txt \
      ...other nbd args...

e6b636779b Add -f FMT / --format FMT arg to qemu-nbd
Currently the qemu-nbd program will auto-detect the format of
any disk it is given. This behaviour is known to be insecure.
For example, if qemu-nbd initially exposes a 'raw' file to an
unprivileged app, and that app runs

   'qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=/etc/shadow /dev/nbd0'

then the next time the app is started, the qemu-nbd will now
detect it as a 'qcow2' file and expose /etc/shadow to the
unprivileged app.

The only way to avoid this is to explicitly tell qemu-nbd what
disk format to use on the command line, completely disabling
auto-detection. This patch adds a '-f' / '--format' arg for
this purpose, mirroring what is already available via qemu-img
and qemu commands.

  qemu-nbd --format raw -p 9000 evil.img

will now always use raw, regardless of what format 'evil.img'
looks like it contains
