[GEDI] [PATCH] gluster: stop using .bdrv_needs_filename

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

The gluster protocol driver used to parse URIs (filenames) but was
extended with a richer JSON syntax in commit 6c7189bb29de
("block/gluster: add support for multiple gluster servers"). The gluster
drivers that have JSON parsing set .bdrv_needs_filename to false.

The gluster+unix and gluster+rdma drivers still to require a filename
even though the JSON parser is equipped to parse the same
volume/path/sockaddr details as the URI parser. Let's allow JSON parsing
for these drivers too.

Note that the gluster+rdma driver actually uses TCP because RDMA support
is not available, so the JSON server.type field must be "inet".

Drop .bdrv_needs_filename since both the filename and the JSON parsers
can handle gluster+unix and gluster+rdma. This change is in preparation
for eventually removing .bdrv_needs_filename across the entire codebase.

My motivation was to remove .bdrv_needs_filename across the entire
codebase, but my confidence in avoiding regressions is too low so I gave
up. There is too much magic around the filename. Most drivers don't want
a "filename" QDict entry although .bdrv_parse_filename() places the
filename string there temporarily. But file-posix does want a "filename"
QDict entry so it breaks when we remove .bdrv_needs_filename. I'm pretty
sure it's accidental complexity but it's hard to simplify without
breaking block drivers.

This gluster patch can be merged though, so I'm sending it.
