[01/10] iotests: Create VM.blockdev_create()

Commit Message

Kevin Wolf Dec. 16, 2019, 5:08 p.m. UTC

We have several almost identical copies of a blockdev_create() function
in different test cases. Time to create one unified function in
iotests.py.

To keep the diff managable, this patch only creates the function and
follow-up patches will convert the individual test cases.
