Externally, libnbd exposed the 64-bit opaque marker for each client
NBD packet as the "cookie", because it was less confusing when
contrasted with 'struct nbd_handle *' holding all libnbd state. It
also avoids confusion between the nown 'handle' as a way to identify a
packet and the verb 'handle' for reacting to things like signals.
Upstream NBD changed their spec to favor the name "cookie" based on
libnbd's recommendations[1], so we can do likewise.
