vm.run() and vm.run_service() functions are hairy. They should be separated to return one type (retcode or pipe or ...). This is currently done via passio* arguments, not separate functions.

qubes/vm/qubesvm: rework QubesVM.run*() methods
0) All those methods are now awaitable rather than synchronous.

1) The base method is run_service(). The method run() was rewritten
   using run_service('qubes.VMShell', input=...). There is no provision
   for running plain commands.

2) Get rid of passio*= arguments. If you'd like to get another return
   value, use another method. It's as simple as that.
   See:
      - run_service_for_stdio()
      - run_for_stdio()

   Also gone are wait= and localcmd= arguments. They are of no use
   inside qubesd.

3) The qvm-run tool and tests are left behind for now and will be fixed
   later. This is because they also need event loop, which is not
   implemented yet.
