Put an NBD block device into an I/O thread, and then read data from it,
hoping that the NBD connection will yield during that read.  When it
does, the coroutine must be reentered in the block device's I/O thread,
which will only happen if the NBD block driver attaches the connection's
QIOChannel to the new AioContext.  It did not do that after 4ddb5d2fde
("block/nbd: drop connection_co") and prior to "block/nbd: Move s->ioc
on AioContext change", which would cause an assertion failure.

To improve our chances of yielding, the NBD server is throttled to
reading 64 kB/s, and the NBD client reads 128 kB, so it should yield at
some point.
