Fiona Ebner bf251437e9 update submodule and patches to QEMU 8.0.0
Many changes were necessary this time around:

* QAPI was changed to avoid redundant has_* variables, see commit
44ea9d9be3 ("qapi: Start to elide redundant has_FOO in generated C")
for details. This affected many QMP commands added by Proxmox too.

* Pending querying for migration got split into two functions, one to
estimate, one for exact value, see commit c8df4a7aef ("migration:
Split save_live_pending() into state_pending_*") for details. Relevant
for savevm-async and PBS dirty bitmap.

* Some block (driver) functions got converted to coroutines, so the
Proxmox block drivers needed to be adapted.

* Alloc track auto-detaching during PBS live restore got broken by
AioContext-related changes resulting in a deadlock. The current, hacky
method was replaced by a simpler one. Stefan apparently ran into a
problem with that when he wrote the driver, but there were
improvements in the stream job code since then and I didn't manage to
reproduce the issue. It's a separate patch "alloc-track: fix deadlock
during drop" for now, you can find the details there.

* Async snapshot-related changes:
  - The pending querying got adapted to the above-mentioned split and
  a patch is added to optimize it/make it more similar to what
  upstream code does.
  - Added initialization of the compression counters (for
    future-proofing).
  - It's necessary the hold the BQL (big QEMU lock = iothread mutex)
  during the setup phase, because block layer functions are used there
  and not doing so leads to racy, hard-to-debug crashes or hangs. It's
  necessary to change some upstream code too for this, a version of
  the patch "migration: for snapshots, hold the BQL during setup
  callbacks" is intended to be upstreamed.
  - Need to take the bdrv graph read lock before flushing.

* hmp_info_balloon was moved to a different file.

* Needed to include a new headers from time to time to still get the
correct functions.

Subject: [PATCH] block/io: accept NULL qiov in bdrv_pad_request
Some operations, e.g. block-stream, perform reads while discarding the
results (only copy-on-read matters). In this case they will pass NULL as
the target QEMUIOVector, which will however trip bdrv_pad_request, since
it wants to extend its passed vector.
Simply check for NULL and do nothing, there's no reason to pad the
target if it will be discarded anyway.
