Bash allows functions to be declared with or without the leading
keyword 'function'; but including the keyword does not comply with
POSIX syntax, and is confusing to ksh users where the use of the
keyword changes the scoping rules for functions.  Stick to the
POSIX form through iotests.

Done mechanically with:
  sed -i 's/^function //' $(git ls-files tests/qemu-iotests)

Running
git grep '\$here' tests/qemu-iotests

has 0 hits, which means we are setting a variable that has
no use.  It appears that commit e8f8624d removed the last
use.  So execute the following cmd to remove all of
the 'here=...' lines as dead code.

sed -i '/^here=/d' $(git grep -l '^here=' tests/qemu-iotests)

The previous commit removed the last usage of ${tmp} inside the tests
themselves; the only remaining users are sourced by check. So we can now
drop this variable from the tests.

Filter out the "main loop: WARNING: I/O thread spun for..." warning from
qemu output (it hardly matters for code specifically testing I/O).

Furthermore, use _filter_qemu in all the custom functions which run
qemu.

This patch removes support for the cow file format.

Normally we do not break backwards compatibility but in this case there
is no impact and it is the most logical option.  Extraordinary claims
require extraordinary evidence so I will show why removing the cow block
driver is the right thing to do.

The cow file format is the disk image format for Usermode Linux, a way
of running a Linux system in userspace.  The performance of UML was
never great and it was hacky, but it enjoyed some popularity before
hardware virtualization support became mainstream.

QEMU's block/cow.c is supposed to read this image file format.
Unfortunately the file format was underspecified:

1. Earlier Linux versions used the MAXPATHLEN constant for the backing
   filename field.  The value of MAXPATHLEN can change, so Linux
   switched to a 4096 literal but QEMU has a 1024 literal.

2. Padding was not used on the header struct (both in the Linux kernel
   and in QEMU) so the struct layout varied across architectures.  In
   particular, i386 and x86_64 were different due to int64_t alignment
   differences.  Linux now uses __attribute__((packed)), QEMU does not.

Therefore:

1. QEMU cow images do not conform to the Linux cow image file format.

2. cow images cannot be shared between different host architectures.

This means QEMU cow images are useless and QEMU has not had bug reports
from users actually hitting these issues.

Let's get rid of this thing, it serves no purpose and no one will be
affected.

Testing a real in-use protocol such as NBD is hard; testing blkdebug and
blkverify in its stead is easier and tests basically the same
functionality.
