blockjob: add block_job_defer_to_main_loop()

Browse source 
Block jobs will run in the BlockDriverState's AioContext, which may not
always be the QEMU main loop.

There are some block layer APIs that are either not thread-safe or risk
lock ordering problems.  This includes bdrv_unref(), bdrv_close(), and
anything that calls bdrv_drain_all().

The block_job_defer_to_main_loop() API allows a block job to schedule a
function to run in the main loop with the BlockDriverState AioContext
held.

This function will be used to perform cleanup and backing chain
manipulations in block jobs.
