Adds the ability to monitor the nbdkit process so that we can take
action in case the child exits unexpectedly.
When the nbdkit process exits, we pause the vm, restart nbdkit, and then
resume the vm. This allows the vm to continue working in the event of a
nbdkit failure.
Eventually we may want to generalize this functionality since we may
need something similar for e.g. qemu-storage-daemon, etc.
The process is monitored with the pidfd_open() syscall if it exists
(since linux 5.3). Otherwise it resorts to checking whether the process
is alive once a second. The one-second time period was chosen somewhat
arbitrarily.
