[Libguestfs] [libnbd PATCH 0/2] Optimize h.pread_structured

[Eric Blake]

Add some more safety against a non-compliant server with structured
reads, and kill off another useless copy operation for a noticeable
speedup when using h.pread_structured.  However, I'm still trying to
play with code to see if PyObject_GetItem(memoryview,
PySlice_New(start, end, NULL)) can get me the same zero-copy python
object but in a way that can survive as long as the original object
lives, rather than forcing .release() at the end of the callback.
Maybe I'll have a patch 3/2 later today.
