Crate disk_backend

Defines the Disk type, which provides an interface to a block device, used for different disk frontends (such as the floppy disk, IDE, SCSI, or NVMe emulators) as well as direct disk access for other purposes (such as the VMGS file system).

Disks are backed by a DiskIo implementation. Specific disk backends should be in their own crates.
