The term "iothread lock" is obsolete. The APIs use Big QEMU Lock (BQL)
in their names. Update the code comments to use "BQL" instead of
"iothread lock".

This is intended to be a semantic revert of commit 9b09503752
("migration: run setup callbacks out of big lock"). There have been so
many changes since that commit (e.g. a new setup callback
dirty_bitmap_save_setup() that also needs to be adapted now), it's
easier to do the revert manually.
For snapshots, the bdrv_writev_vmstate() function is used during setup
(in QIOChannelBlock backing the QEMUFile), but not holding the BQL
while calling it could lead to an assertion failure. To understand
how, first note the following:
1. Generated coroutine wrappers for block layer functions spawn the
coroutine and use AIO_WAIT_WHILE()/aio_poll() to wait for it.
2. If the host OS switches threads at an inconvenient time, it can
happen that a bottom half scheduled for the main thread's AioContext
is executed as part of a vCPU thread's aio_poll().
An example leading to the assertion failure is as follows:
main thread:
1. A snapshot-save QMP command gets issued.
2. snapshot_save_job_bh() is scheduled.
vCPU thread:
3. aio_poll() for the main thread's AioContext is called (e.g. when
the guest writes to a pflash device, as part of blk_pwrite which is a
generated coroutine wrapper).
4. snapshot_save_job_bh() is executed as part of aio_poll().
3. qemu_savevm_state() is called.
4. qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread() is called. Now
qemu_get_current_aio_context() returns 0x0.
5. bdrv_writev_vmstate() is executed during the usual savevm setup
via qemu_fflush(). But this function is a generated coroutine wrapper,
so it uses AIO_WAIT_WHILE. There, the assertion
assert(qemu_get_current_aio_context() == qemu_get_aio_context());
will fail.
To fix it, ensure that the BQL is held during setup. While it would
only be needed for snapshots, adapting migration too avoids additional
logic for conditional locking/unlocking in the setup callbacks.
Writing the header could (in theory) also trigger qemu_fflush() and
thus bdrv_writev_vmstate(), so the locked section also covers the
qemu_savevm_state_header() call, even for migration for consistency.
The section around multifd_send_sync_main() needs to be unlocked to
avoid a deadlock. In particular, the multifd_save_setup() function calls
socket_send_channel_create() using multifd_new_send_channel_async() as a
callback and then waits for the callback to signal via the
channels_ready semaphore. The connection happens via
qio_task_run_in_thread(), but the callback is only executed via
qio_task_thread_result() which is scheduled for the main event loop.
Without unlocking the section, the main thread would never get to
process the task result and the callback meaning there would be no
signal via the channels_ready semaphore.
The comment in ram_init_bitmaps() was introduced by 4987783400
("migration: fix incorrect memory_global_dirty_log_start outside BQL")
and is removed, because it referred to the qemu_mutex_lock_iothread()
call.

Add a new .save_prepare() handler to struct SaveVMHandlers. This handler
is called early, even before migration starts, and can be used by
devices to perform early checks.
Refactor migrate_init() to be able to return errors and call
.save_prepare() from there.

Implement switchover ack logic. This prevents the source from stopping
the VM and completing the migration until an ACK is received from the
destination that it's OK to do so.
To achieve this, a new SaveVMHandlers handler switchover_ack_needed()
and a new return path message MIG_RP_MSG_SWITCHOVER_ACK are added.
The switchover_ack_needed() handler is called during migration setup in
the destination to check if switchover ack is used by the migrated
device.
When switchover is approved by all migrated devices in the destination
that support this capability, the MIG_RP_MSG_SWITCHOVER_ACK return path
message is sent to the source to notify it that it's OK to do
switchover.

Now postcopy-able states are recognized by not NULL
save_live_complete_postcopy handler. But when we have several different
postcopy-able states, it is not convenient. Ram postcopy may be
disabled, while some other postcopy enabled, in this case Ram state
should behave as it is not postcopy-able.
