Markus Armbruster 481b002cc8 qobject: Add a special null QObject
I'm going to fix the JSON parser to recognize null.  The obvious
representation of JSON null as (QObject *)NULL doesn't work, because
the parser already uses it as an error value.  Perhaps we should
change it to free NULL for null, but that's more than I can do right
now.  Create a special null QObject instead.

The existing QDict, QList, and QString all represent something that
is a pointer in C and could therefore be associated with NULL.  But
right now, all three of these sub-types are always non-null once
created, so the new null sentinel object is intentionally unrelated
to them.

Markus Armbruster a7c3181628 qobject: Clean up around qtype_code
QTYPE_NONE is a sentinel value.  No QObject has this type code.
Document it properly.

Fix dump_qobject() to abort() on QTYPE_NONE, just like for any other
invalid type code.

Fix to_json() to abort() on all invalid type codes, not just
QTYPE_MAX.

Clean up Property member qtype's type: it's a qtype_code.

Max Reitz 4b58554a0e qjson: Drop trailing space for pretty formatting
For the pretty formatting, the functions converting QDicts and QLists to
JSON should not print a space after the comma separating objects,
because a newline will emitted immediately afterwards, making the
whitespace superfluous.

Kevin Wolf 69dd62dfd6 qapi: Anonymous unions
The discriminator for anonymous unions is the data type. This allows to
have a union type that allows both of these:

    { 'file': 'my_existing_block_device_id' }
    { 'file': { 'filename': '/tmp/mydisk.qcow2', 'read-only': true } }

Unions like this are specified in the schema with an empty dict as
discriminator. For this example you could take:

    { 'union': 'BlockRef',
      'discriminator': {},
      'data': { 'definition': 'BlockOptions',
                'reference': 'str' } }
    { 'type': 'ExampleObject',
      'data: { 'file': 'BlockRef' } }

Markus Armbruster e2ec3f9768 qjson: to_json() case QTYPE_QSTRING is buggy, rewrite
Known bugs in to_json():

* A start byte for a three-byte sequence followed by less than two
  continuation bytes is split into one-byte sequences.

* Start bytes for sequences longer than three bytes get misinterpreted
  as start bytes for three-byte sequences.  Continuation bytes beyond
  byte three become one-byte sequences.

  This means all characters outside the BMP are decoded incorrectly.

* One-byte sequences with the MSB are put into the JSON string
  verbatim when char is unsigned, producing invalid UTF-8.  When char
  is signed, they're replaced by "\\uFFFF" instead.

  This includes \xFE, \xFF, and stray continuation bytes.

* Overlong sequences are happily accepted, unless screwed up by the
  bugs above.

* Likewise, sequences encoding surrogate code points or noncharacters.

* Unlike other control characters, ASCII DEL is not escaped.  Except
  in overlong encodings.

My rewrite fixes them as follows:

* Malformed UTF-8 sequences are replaced.

  Except the overlong encoding \xC0\x80 of U+0000 is still accepted.
  Permits embedding NUL characters in C strings.  This trick is known
  as "Modified UTF-8".

* Sequences encoding code points beyond Unicode range are replaced.

* Sequences encoding code points beyond the BMP produce a surrogate
  pair.

* Sequences encoding surrogate code points are replaced.

* Sequences encoding noncharacters are replaced.

* ASCII DEL is now always escaped.

The replacement character is U+FFFD.
