block: introduce bdrv_make_zero
this patch adds a call to completely zero out a block device. the operation is sped up by checking the block status and only writing zeroes to the device if they currently do not return zeroes. optionally the zero writing can be sped up by setting the flag BDRV_REQ_MAY_UNMAP to emulate the zero write by unmapping if the driver supports it.
