block: extend BLOCK_IO_ERROR with reason string
BLOCK_IO_ERROR events are logged by libvirt, which helps with
post mortem analysis of guests. However, one information that
we miss today is a human readable string describing the cause
of the I/O error.
This commit adds that string it to BLOCK_IO_ERROR. Note that
this string is a debugging aid for humans, meaning that it
should not parsed by applications.
