block/blkio: retry blkio_connect() if it fails using `fd`

libblkio 1.3.0 added support of "fd" property for virtio-blk-vhost-vdpa
driver. In QEMU, starting from commit cad2ccc395 ("block/blkio: use
qemu_open() to support fd passing for virtio-blk") we are using
`blkio_get_int(..., "fd")` to check if the "fd" property is supported
for all the virtio-blk-* driver.

Unfortunately that property is also available for those driver that do
not support it, such as virtio-blk-vhost-user.

So, `blkio_get_int()` is not enough to check whether the driver supports
the `fd` property or not. This is because the virito-blk common libblkio
driver only checks whether or not `fd` is set during `blkio_connect()`
and fails with -EINVAL for those transports that do not support it
(all except vhost-vdpa for now).

So let's handle the `blkio_connect()` failure, retrying it using `path`
directly.
