[Qemu-devel] [RFC V4 00/30] QCOW2 deduplication |

This patchset is a cleanup of the previous QCOW2 deduplication rfc.
One can compile and install https://github.com/wernerd/Skein3Fish and use the
--enable-skein-dedup configure option in order to use the faster skein HASH.
Images must be created with "-o dedup=[skein|sha256]" in order to activate the
deduplication in the image.
Deduplication is now fast enough to be usable.
v4: Fix and complete qcow2 spec [Stefan]
Hash the hash_algo field in the header extension [Stefan]
Fix qcow2 spec [Eric]
Remove pointer to hash and simplify hash memory management [Stefan]
Rename and move qcow2_read_cluster_data to qcow2.c [Stefan]
Document lock dropping behaviour of the previous function [Stefan]
cleanup qcow2_dedup_read_missing_cluster_data [Stefan]
rename *_offset to *_sect [Stefan]
add a ./configure check for ssl [Stefan]
Replace openssl by gnutls [Stefan]
Implement Skein hashes
Rewrite pretty every qcow2-dedup.c commits after Add
qcow2_dedup_read_missing_and_concatenate to simplify the code
Use 64KB deduplication hash block to reduce allocation flushes
Use 64KB l2 tables to reduce allocation flushes [breaks compatibility]
Use lazy refcounts to avoid qcow2_cache_set_dependency loops resultings
in frequent caches flushes
Do not create and load dedup RAM structures when bdrs->read_only is true
v3: make it work barely
replace kernel red black trees by gtree.

qcow: Set dedup cluster block size to 64KB.
qcow2: init and cleanup deduplication.
qemu-iotests: Filter dedup=on/off so existing tests don't break.
