check_if()'s errors don't point to the offending part of the
expression. For instance:
tests/qapi-schema/alternate-branch-if-invalid.json:2: 'if' condition ' ' makes no sense
Other check_FOO() do, with the help of a @source argument. Make
check_if() do that, too. The example above improves to:
tests/qapi-schema/alternate-branch-if-invalid.json:2: 'if' condition ' ' of 'data' member 'branch' makes no sense

We take pains to include the offending expression in error messages,
e.g.
tests/qapi-schema/alternate-any.json:2: alternate 'Alt' member 'one' cannot use type 'any'
But not always:
tests/qapi-schema/enum-if-invalid.json:2: 'if' condition must be a string or a list of strings
Instead of improving them one by one, report the offending expression
whenever it is known, like this:
tests/qapi-schema/enum-if-invalid.json: In enum 'TestIfEnum':
tests/qapi-schema/enum-if-invalid.json:2: 'if' condition must be a string or a list of strings
Error messages that mention the offending expression become a bit
redundant, e.g.
tests/qapi-schema/alternate-any.json: In alternate 'Alt':
tests/qapi-schema/alternate-any.json:2: alternate 'Alt' member 'one' cannot use type 'any'
I'll take care of that later in this series.

We represent the parse tree as OrderedDict. We fetch optional dict
members with .get(). So far, so good.
We represent null literals as None. .get() returns None both for
"absent" and for "present, value is the null literal". Uh-oh.
Test features-if-invalid exposes this bug: "'if': null" is
misinterpreted as absent "if".
We added null to the schema language to "allow [...] an explicit
default value" (commit e53188ada5 "qapi: Allow true, false and null in
schema json", v2.4.0). Hasn't happened; null is still unused except
as generic invalid value in tests/.
To fix, we'd have to replace .get() by something more careful, or
represent null differently. Feasible, but we got more and bigger fish
to fry right now. Remove the null literal from the schema language.
Replace null in tests by another invalid value.
Test features-if-invalid now behaves as it should.

Cover invalid 'if' in struct members, features, union and alternate
branches. Four out of four are broken. Mark FIXME.
