nbd/server: push pending frames after sending reply
qemu-nbd doesn't set TCP_NODELAY on the tcp socket.
Kernel waits for more data and avoids transmission of small packets.
Without TLS this is barely noticeable, but with TLS this really shows.
Booting a VM via qemu-nbd on localhost (with tls) takes more than
2 minutes on my system. tcpdump shows frequent wait periods, where no
packets get sent for a 40ms period.
Add explicit (un)corking when processing (and responding to) requests.
"TCP_CORK, &zero" after earlier "CORK, &one" will flush pending data.
VM Boot time:
main: no tls: 23s, with tls: 2m45s
patched: no tls: 14s, with tls: 15s
VM Boot time, qemu-nbd via network (same lan):
main: no tls: 18s, with tls: 1m50s
patched: no tls: 17s, with tls: 18s
Future optimization: if we could detect if there is another pending
request we could defer the uncork operation because more data would be
appended.
