linux-aio: fix re-entrant completion processing

Commit 0ed93d84edabc7656f5c998ae1a346fe8b94ca54 ("linux-aio: process
completions from ioq_submit()") added an optimization that processes
completions each time ioq_submit() returns with requests in flight.
This commit introduces a "Co-routine re-entered recursively" error which
can be triggered with -drive format=qcow2,aio=native.

Fam Zheng <famz@redhat.com>, Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>, and I
debugged the following backtrace:

It turned out that re-entrant ioq_submit() and completion processing
between three requests caused this error.  The following check is not
sufficient to prevent recursively entering coroutines:

  if (laiocb->co != qemu_coroutine_self()) {
      qemu_coroutine_enter(laiocb->co);
  }

As the following coroutine backtrace shows, not just the current
coroutine (self) can be entered.  There might also be other coroutines
that are currently entered and transferred control due to the qcow2 lock
(CoMutex):

Use the new qemu_coroutine_entered() function instead of comparing
against qemu_coroutine_self().  This is correct because:

1. If a coroutine is not entered then it must have yielded to wait for
   I/O completion.  It is therefore safe to enter.

2. If a coroutine is entered then it must be in
   ioq_submit()/qemu_laio_process_completions() because otherwise it
   would be yielded while waiting for I/O completion.  Therefore it will
   check laio->ret and return from ioq_submit() instead of yielding,
   i.e. it's guaranteed not to hang.
