block: Use bdrv_coroutine_enter to start I/O coroutines

BDRV_POLL_WHILE waits for the started I/O by releasing bs's ctx then polling
the main context, which relies on the yielded coroutine continuing on bs->ctx
before notifying qemu_aio_context with bdrv_wakeup().

Thus, using qemu_coroutine_enter to start I/O is wrong because if the coroutine
is entered from main loop, co->ctx will be qemu_aio_context, as a result of the
"release, poll, acquire" loop of BDRV_POLL_WHILE, race conditions happen when
both main thread and the iothread access the same BDS:

  main loop                                iothread
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
  blockdev_snapshot
    aio_context_acquire(bs->ctx)
                                           virtio_scsi_data_plane_handle_cmd
    bdrv_drained_begin(bs->ctx)
    bdrv_flush(bs)
      bdrv_co_flush(bs)                      aio_context_acquire(bs->ctx).enter
        ...
        qemu_coroutine_yield(co)
      BDRV_POLL_WHILE()
        aio_context_release(bs->ctx)
                                             aio_context_acquire(bs->ctx).return
                                               ...
                                                 aio_co_wake(co)
        aio_poll(qemu_aio_context)               ...
          co_schedule_bh_cb()                    ...
            qemu_coroutine_enter(co)             ...

              /* (A) bdrv_co_flush(bs)           /* (B) I/O on bs */
                      continues... */
                                             aio_context_release(bs->ctx)
        aio_context_acquire(bs->ctx)

Note that in above case, bdrv_drained_begin() doesn't do the "release,
poll, acquire" in BDRV_POLL_WHILE, because bs->in_flight == 0.

Fix this by using bdrv_coroutine_enter and enter coroutine in the right
context.

iotests 109 output is updated because the coroutine reenter flow during
mirror job complete is different (now through co_queue_wakeup, instead
of the unconditional qemu_coroutine_switch before), making the end job
len different.
