block: add block driver read only whitelist

We may want to include a driver in the whitelist for read only tasks
such as diagnosing or exporting guest data (with libguestfs as a good
example). This patch introduces a readonly whitelist option, and for
backward compatibility, the old configure option --block-drv-whitelist
is now an alias to rw whitelist.

Drivers in readonly list is only permitted to open file readonly, and
returns -ENOTSUP for RW opening.

E.g. To include vmdk readonly, and others read+write:
    ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu \
                --block-drv-rw-whitelist=qcow2,raw,file,qed \
                --block-drv-ro-whitelist=vmdk
