stubdom: 'file' based disk sharing

Allow 'file' based disks, that are blkback based disks, to be shared
between the guest domain and the stubdom. It does so exploiting the
same exception introduced in the previous patch "stubdoms phy disks
sharing". Now we can remove the hack in stubdom-dm that forces "file"
disks to be opened using blktap instead of blkback.
