qcow2: Add subcluster support to qcow2_co_pwrite_zeroes()
This works now at the subcluster level and pwrite_zeroes_alignment is updated accordingly. qcow2_cluster_zeroize() is turned into qcow2_subcluster_zeroize() with the following changes: - The request can now be subcluster-aligned. - The cluster-aligned body of the request is still zeroized using zero_in_l2_slice() as before. - The subcluster-aligned head and tail of the request are zeroized with the new zero_l2_subclusters() function. There is just one thing to take into account for a possible future improvement: compressed clusters cannot be partially zeroized so zero_l2_subclusters() on the head or the tail can return -ENOTSUP. This makes the caller repeat the *complete* request and write actual zeroes to disk. This is sub-optimal because 1) if the head area was compressed we would still be able to use the fast path for the body and possibly the tail. 2) if the tail area was compressed we are writing zeroes to the head and the body areas, which are already zeroized.
