Backport of the upstream series fixing an unauthenticated crash in the
VNC websocket handshake. A client which can reach a websocket port
crashes QEMU before it has authenticated, by sending an HTTP greeting
whose request line holds no space:

  printf 'stats\r\nx\r\n\r\n' | nc $host $port

Three defects line up to produce it. The greeting is rejected without
queueing a response, so the handshake goes on to flush an empty buffer.
A zero length sendmsg() succeeds and returns 0, which
qio_channel_socket_writev() mistakes for failure and reports as
QIO_CHANNEL_ERR_BLOCK with errp left unset. The handshake treats every
negative return as fatal and hands that NULL Error to
error_get_pretty(). Patches 1 to 3 close the three links.

Patch 5 is the same NULL Error on the read side of the handshake, where
ERR_BLOCK is folded into -1. It is reachable for a wss:// client, whose
master channel is then a TLS channel: a wakeup carrying only part of a
record makes gnutls report EAGAIN.

The series applies to the branch unchanged, and the new unit test passes
on it.
