Hi all!
Here is a filter, which does preallocation on write.
In Virtuozzo we have to deal with some custom distributed storage
solution, where allocation is relatively expensive operation. We have to
workaround it in Qemu, so here is a new filter.
For the details refer to original cover-letter
"[PATCH 0/5] preallocate filter"
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-06/msg06443.html

07: add note to docs/system/qemu-block-drivers.rst.inc
add open options

drop bs->file check in _co_flush()
08: new
09: use new iotests.verify_o_direct()
