nbd-server binary build

At the moment, the NBD package can only build the "nbd-client" binary.
The attached patch adds the ability to build "nbd-server" binary (ie the userspace daemon used to serve block to a remote client)
it can activate client, server or both.

It includes 2 patches for nbd-server source code :
- remove SUSv3 deprecated function "index()"
- fix read function usage when -EAGAIN occurs (same fix as in nbd-server debian package)

I have tested this on an ARM target.
