[Nbd] [PATCH] nbd-tester-client: analyse bad data using hash function huersistic



The hash function used by the integrity test was designed specifically
such that with < (2^32) blocks and < (2^32) read/write operations, it
can accurately guess how the bad data returned was generated. This
patch uses this huersistic to provide a guess as to what is wrong.
EG if it prints out a correct block number but a bad sequence number,
it is likely the server is disordering writes or has missed writes.

Available from git.alex.org.uk as usual.
