Upcoming additions to support NBD 64-bit effect lengths allow for the

Technically, the NBD spec does not (yet) have a documented cap of a
63-bit size limit; although I should probably propose a patch upstream
that does that (I had one in my draft work, but it hasn't yet made it
upstream)

NBD_CMD_WRITE request has a payload; but with the extension, it makes
sense to allow at least NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS to have both a payload
and effect length (where the payload is a limited-size struct that in
turns gives the real effect length as well as a subset of known ids
for which status is requested).  Other future NBD commands may also
have a request payload, so the 64-bit extension introduces a new
NBD_CMD_FLAG_PAYLOAD_LEN that distinguishes between whether the header
length is a payload length or an effect length, rather than
hard-coding the decision based on the command.  Note that we do not
support the payload version of BLOCK_STATUS yet.

For this patch, no semantic change is intended for a compliant client.
For a non-compliant client, it is possible that the error behavior
changes (a different message, a change on whether the connection is
killed or remains alive for the next command, or so forth), in part
because req->complete is set later on some paths, but all errors
should still be handled gracefully.

I'm still debating about rewriting this series of slightly-different
'if' into a single switch (request->type) block; the benefit is that

I vote for switch!) Really, seems it would be a lot simpler to read.

all actions for one command will be localized instead of split over
multiple lines of if, the drawback is that some code will now have to
be duplicated across commands (such as the buffer allocation code for
CMD_READ and CMD_WRITE).
