Previously live commit of active block device is not supported, this series
implements it and updates corresponding qemu-iotests cases.
This series is based on BlockJobType enum QAPI series.
v7: Fix "Since 1.8" to "Since 2.0".
Rebase patch 05 to master.
v6: Address comments from Stefan:
[04/06] commit: support commit active layer

v5: Address comments from Eric and Paolo:
Add mirror_start_job and front end wrapper. [Paolo]
Base on BlockJobType enum in QAPI. [Eric]
Drop "common" sync mode. [Eric]
v4: Rewrite to reuse block/mirror.c.
When committing the active layer, the job is internally a mirror job with
type name faked to "commit".
When the job completes, the BDSes are swapped, so the base image become
active and [top, base) dropped.
