Fix nbd_send_request to return int, as it returns a return value

The real problem here is the return value of nbd_write() - it should be
a ssize_t, not an int, since it is propagating the return value of
nbd_rwv() which is ssize_t.

It was changed in f5d406fe86bb (sent in May)
The discussion actually was started half a year ago:

Basically all functions that do I/O and
return the number of bytes read/written should be ssize_t - any use of
int is a bug.
