io: invert the return semantics of qio_channel_flush

Browse Source 
With the kernel's zerocopy notification mechanism, the caller can
determine whether
 * All syscalls successfully used zero copy
 * At least one syscall failed to use zero copy

But, as of now QEMU's IO channel flush function semantics are like
 * 1 => all syscalls failed to use zero copy
 * 0 => at least one syscall successfully used zero copy

This is not aligned with what the kernel reports, and ends up reporting
false negatives for cases like when there's just a single successful
zerocopy amongst a collection of deferred zero-copies during a flush.

Fix this by inverting the return semantics of the IO flush function.
