The next commit will exploit the fact it never fails. This one makes
it obvious.

All NICs have a cleanup function that, in most cases, zeroes the pointer
to the NICState. In some cases, it frees data belonging to the NIC.
However, this function is never called except when exiting from QEMU.
It is not necessary to NULL pointers and free data here; the right place
to do that would be in the device's unrealize function, after calling
qemu_del_nic. Zeroing the NIC multiple times is also wrong for multiqueue
devices.
This cleanup function gets in the way of making the NetClientStates for
the NIC hold an object_ref reference to the object, so get rid of it.

Add a qom property with the same name 'bootindex',
when we remove it form qdev property, things will
continue to work just fine, and we can use qom features
which are not supported by qdev property.
