This part still needs fixing; but partially answering myself:

Using this instead of sleep():

+    co_aio_sleep_ns(client->exp->ctx, QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME, 2000000000);

produced the trace I was looking for:

2837@1509745520.815687:nbd_send_request Sending request to server: {
.from = 1, .len = 1, .handle = 93924431318768, .flags = 0x1, .type = 1

2837@1509745520.815764:nbd_send_request Sending request to server: {

2837@1509745522.817474:nbd_receive_structured_reply_chunk Got structured
reply chunk: { flags = 0x1, type = 0, handle = 93924431318769, length = 0 }
read 1/1 bytes at offset 1
1 bytes, 1 ops; 0:00:02.00 (0.499560 bytes/sec and 0.4996 ops/sec)

which means I'm fairly confident that our client implementation is doing
the right thing with regards to complex out-of-order/interleaved
structured replies!  Always a nice thing to demonstrate.
