For now, that method supported only by Linux TAP.

When QEMU sets up a tap based network device backend, it mostly ignores errors
reported from various ioctl() calls it makes, assuming the TAP file descriptor
is valid. This assumption can easily be violated when the user is passing in a
pre-opened file descriptor. At best, the ioctls may fail with a -EBADF, but if
the user passes in a bogus FD number that happens to clash with a FD number that
QEMU has opened internally for another reason, a wide variety of errnos may
result, as the TUNGETIFF ioctl number may map to a completely different command
on a different type of file.
By ignoring all these errors, QEMU sets up a zombie network backend that will
never pass any data. Even worse, when QEMU shuts down, or that network backend
is hot-removed, it will close this bogus file descriptor, which could belong to
another QEMU device backend.
There's no obvious guaranteed reliable way to detect that a FD genuinely is a
TAP device, as opposed to a UNIX socket, or pipe, or something else. Checking
the errno from probing vnet hdr flag though, does catch the big common cases.
ie calling TUNGETIFF will return EBADF for an invalid FD, and ENOTTY when FD is
a UNIX socket, or pipe which catches accidental collisions with FDs used for
stdio, or monitor socket.
Previously the example below where bogus fd 9 collides with the FD used for the
chardev saw:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,fd=9 \
-chardev socket,id=charchannel0,path=/tmp/qga,server,nowait \
-monitor stdio -vnc :0
qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,fd=9: TUNGETIFF ioctl() failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl() failed: Bad address
QEMU 2.9.1 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) Warning: netdev hostnet0 has no peer
which gives a running QEMU with a zombie network backend.
With this change applied we get an error message and QEMU immediately exits
before carrying on and making a bigger disaster:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,fd=9 \
-chardev socket,id=charchannel0,path=/tmp/qga,server,nowait \
-monitor stdio -vnc :0
qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,vhost=on,fd=9: Unable to query TUNGETIFF on FD 9: Inappropriate ioctl for device

The files tap-haiku.c and tap-aix.c are identical (except one line
of error message). We should avoid such code duplication, so replace
these by a generic tap-stub.c file instead.
