vl: pause vcpus before stopping iothreads

Browse Source 
Commit dce8921b2b ("iothread: Stop threads
before main() quits") introduced iothread_stop_all() to avoid the
following virtio-scsi assertion failure:

  assert(blk_get_aio_context(d->conf.blk) == s->ctx);

Back then the assertion failed because when bdrv_close_all() made
d->conf.blk NULL, blk_get_aio_context() returned the global AioContext
instead of s->ctx.

The same assertion can still fail today when vcpus submit new I/O
requests after iothread_stop_all() has moved the BDS to the global
AioContext.

This patch hardens the iothread_stop_all() approach by pausing vcpus
before calling iothread_stop_all().

Note that the assertion failure is a race condition.  It is not possible
to reproduce it reliably.
