[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 18/24] qemu-img: Change compare_sectors() to be byte-based

[Eric Blake]

In the continuing quest to make more things byte-based, change
compare_sectors(), renaming it to compare_buffers() in the
process.  Note that one caller (qemu-img compare) only cares
about the first difference, while the other (qemu-img rebase)
cares about how many consecutive sectors have the same
equal/different status; however, this patch does not bother to
micro-optimize the compare case to avoid the comparisons of
sectors beyond the first mismatch.  Both callers are always
passing valid buffers in, so the initial check for buffer size
can be turned into an assertion.
