block-backend: Allow concurrent context changes
Since AioContext locks have been removed, a BlockBackend's AioContext may really change at any time (only exception is that it is often confined to a drained section, as noted in this patch). Therefore, blk_get_aio_context() cannot rely on its root node's context always matching that of the BlockBackend. In practice, whether they match does not matter anymore anyway: Requests can be sent to BDSs from any context, so anyone who requests the BB's context should have no reason to require the root node to have the same context. Therefore, we can and should remove the assertion to that effect. In addition, because the context can be set and queried from different threads concurrently, it has to be accessed with atomic operations.
