Documents within a Sphinx manual are separate files and therefore can use
different conventions for headings. However, keeping some consistency is
useful so that included files are easy to get right.
This patch uses a standard heading format for book titles, so that it is
obvious when a file sits at the top level toctree of a book or man page.
The heading is irrelevant for man pages, but keep it consistent as well.

This gives us better feature parity with QMP nbd-server-start, where
max-connections defaults to 0 for unlimited.

Allow the server to expose an additional metacontext to be requested
by savvy clients. qemu-nbd adds a new option -A to expose the
qemu:allocation-depth metacontext through NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS; this
can also be set via QMP when using block-export-add.
qemu as client is hacked into viewing the key aspects of this new
context by abusing the already-experimental x-dirty-bitmap option to
collapse all depths greater than 2, which results in a tri-state value
visible in the output of 'qemu-img map --output=json' (yes, that means
x-dirty-bitmap is now a bit of a misnomer, but I didn't feel like
renaming it as it would introduce a needless break of back-compat,
even though we make no compat guarantees with x- members):
unallocated (depth 0) => "zero":false, "data":true
local (depth 1) => "zero":false, "data":false
backing (depth 2+) => "zero":true, "data":true
libnbd as client is probably a nicer way to get at the information
without having to decipher such hacks in qemu as client. ;)
