push down vector linearization to posix-aio-compat.c (Christoph Hellwig)

Make all AIO requests vectored and defer linearization until the actual
I/O thread.  This prepares for using native preadv/pwritev.

Also enables asynchronous direct I/O by handling that case in the I/O thread.

Qcow and qcow2 propably want to be adopted to directly deal with multi-segment
requests, but that can be implemented later.
