Using workqueues frees us from having to manage the lifecycle
of three dedicated threads. Discovery (alt server checks) and
sending keepalive packets is now done using work on the
power efficient system queue. Sending and receiving happens
via dedicated work queues with higher priority.
blk-mq has also been around for quite a while in the kernel,
so switching to it doesn't hurt backwards compatibility.
As the code is now refactored to work more as blk-mq is designed,
backwards compatibility even improved while at the same time
freeing us from an arsenal of macros that were required to make
the blk-mq port look and feel like the old implementation.
For example, the code now compiles on CentOS 7 with kernel 3.10
without requiring special macros to detect the heavily modified
RedHat kernel with all its backported features.
A few other design limitations have been rectified along the way,
e.g. switching to another server now doesn't internally disconnect
from the current one first, which theoretically could lead to a
non-working setup, if the new server isn't reachable and then -
because of some transient network error - switching back also
fails. As the discover-thread was torn down from the disconnect
call, the connection would also not repair itself eventually.
we now establish the new connection in parallel to the old one,
and only if that succeeds do we replace the old one with it,
similar to how the automatic alt-server switch already does it.

This change restructures the source code directories, separates shared
form non-shared application code and adds CMake dependencies. These
dependencies allow the tracking of changes and trigger a rebuild of
those build targets where changed files are involved.
WARNING: Note that the support of the DNBD3_SERVER_AFL build option is
not supported yet. Thus, the option should be never turned on.

This change converts all debug messages to support the Linux kernel's
dynamic debug feature. Debug messages can be enabled or disabled by
the debug feature if the
- kernel module is built in debug mode (EXTRA_CFLAGS=-g -DDEBUG)
- Linux kernel supports dynamic debug (CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is set)
This patch removes outdated kernel compatibility macros (used for Linux
kernels in version 4.x) and cleans up the kernel module's code.

This converts the dnbd3 kernel module driver to use the blk-mq
infrastructure, which allows the dnbd3 kernel module driver to be
compatible with Linux kernels in version 5.x or later. The conversion of
the implementation uses one hardware queue to preserve the existing
send/receive and load-balancing logic, but can be scaled up in the
future. In addition to that, time measurements in the implementation are
converted to ktime based accessors to replace the use of deprecated time
interfaces.
