Added 'access' option to -drive flag
The new option is: access=[rw|ro|auto]

failed
ro: open the file only with Read permission
auto: open the file with Read and Write permission, if failed, try only Read
permision
For compatibility reasons, the default is 'auto'. Should be changed later on.
This option is to replace the 'readonly' options added lately.
Can we take the readonly parameter away? It's undocumented, for
whatever that's worth...
readonly made 0.12. Semantics, readonly makes it to the disk emulation
whereas this effects how the file is opened.
