     file-posix: Handle undetectable alignment

     block: Require aligned image size to avoid assertion failure
have interesting side effect if used togather.

If the image size is not multiple of 4k and that image falls under
original constraints of Nil's patch, the image can not be opened
due to the check in the bdrv_check_perm().

The patch tries to satisfy the requirements of bdrv_check_perm()
inside raw_probe_alignment(). This is at my opinion better that just
disallowing to run that test in non-cached mode. The operation is legal
by itself.
