*** This patch series adds support for zoned device to virtio-blk emulation. Zoned
Storage can support sequential writes, which reduces write amplification in SSD,
leading to higher write throughput and increased capacity.
v3:
- add block layer APIs resembling Linux ZoneBlockDevice ioctls (developing) ***
