Markus Armbruster a130728554 qapi: Generalize struct member policy checking
The generated visitor functions call visit_deprecated_accept() and
visit_deprecated() when visiting a struct member with special feature
flag 'deprecated'.  This makes the feature flag visible to the actual
visitors.  I want to make feature flag 'unstable' visible there as
well, so I can add policy for it.

To let me make it visible, replace these functions by
visit_policy_reject() and visit_policy_skip(), which take the member's
special features as an argument.  Note that the new functions have the
opposite sense, i.e. the return value flips.

[Unbreak forward visitor]

Paolo Bonzini 18fa3ebc45 qapi: introduce forwarding visitor
This new adaptor visitor takes a single field of the adaptee, and exposes it
with a different name.

This will be used for QOM alias properties.  Alias targets can of course
have a different name than the alias property itself (e.g. a machine's
pflash0 might be an alias of a property named 'drive').  When the target's
getter or setter invokes the visitor, it will use a different name than
what the caller expects, and the visitor will not be able to find it
(or will consume erroneously).

The solution is for alias getters and setters to wrap the incoming
visitor, and forward the sole field that the target is expecting while
renaming it appropriately.
