New device, has never been released, so we can still improve things
without worrying about compatibility.
Naming is a mess. The code calls the device driver CirMemCharDriver,
the public API calls it "memory", "memchardev", or "memchar", and the
special commands are named like "memchar-FOO". "memory" is a
particularly unfortunate choice, because there's another character
device driver called MemoryDriver. Moreover, the device's distinctive
property is that it's a ring buffer, not that's in memory. Therefore:
* Rename CirMemCharDriver to RingBufCharDriver, and call the thing a
"ringbuf" in the API.
* Rename QMP and HMP commands from memchar-FOO to ringbuf-FOO.
* Rename device parameter from maxcapacity to size (simple words are
good for you).
* Clearly mark the parameter as optional in documentation.
* Fix error reporting so that chardev-add reports to current monitor,
not stderr.
* Replace cirmem in C identifiers by ringbuf.
* Rework documentation. Document the impact of our crappy UTF-8
handling on reading.
* QMP examples that even work.
I could split this up into multiple commits, but they'd change the
same documentation lines multiple times. Not worth it.

While streaming can be dropped as soon as it progressed through the whole
image, mirroring needs to be completed manually for two reasons: 1) so that
management knows exactly when the VM switches to the target; 2) because
for other use cases such as replication, we may leave the operation running
for the whole life of the virtual machine.
Add a new block job command that manually completes background operations.

Convert 'sendkey' to use QAPI.
QAPI passes key's index of mapping table to qmp_send_key(),
not keycode. So we use help functions to convert key/code to
index of key_defs, and 'index' will be converted to 'keycode'
inside qmp_send_key().
For qmp, QAPI would check invalid key and raise error.
For hmp, invalid key is checked in hmp_send_key().
'send-key' of QMP doesn't support key in hexadecimal format.

This is not a full QAPI conversion, but an intermediate step.
In essence, do_netdev_add() is split into three functions:
1. netdev_add(): performs the actual work. This function is fully
converted to Error (thus, it's "qapi-friendly")
2. qmp_netdev_add(): the QMP front-end for netdev_add(). This is
coded by hand and not auto-generated (gen=no in the schema). The
reason for this it's a lot easier and simpler to with QemuOpts
this way
3. hmp_netdev_add(): HMP front-end.
This design was suggested by Paolo Bonzini.

The command's usage:
dump-guest-memory [-p] protocol [begin] [length]
The supported protocol can be file or fd:
1. file: the protocol starts with "file:", and the following string is
the file's path.
2. fd: the protocol starts with "fd:", and the following string is the
fd's name.
Note:
1. If you want to use gdb to process the core, please specify -p option.
The reason why the -p option is not default is:
a. guest machine in a catastrophic state can have corrupted memory,
which we cannot trust.
b. The guest machine can be in read-mode even if paging is enabled.
For example: the guest machine uses ACPI to sleep, and ACPI sleep
state goes in real-mode.
2. If you don't want to dump all guest's memory, please specify the start
physical address and the length.

The migrate command is one of those commands where HMP and QMP completely
mix up together. This made the conversion to the QAPI (which separates the
command into QMP and HMP parts) a bit difficult.
The first important change to be noticed is that this commit completes the
removal of the Monitor object from migration code, started by the previous
commit.
Another important and tricky change is about supporting the non-detached
mode. That is, if the user doesn't pass '-d' the migrate command will lock
the monitor and will only release it when migration is finished.
To support this in the new HMP command (hmp_migrate()), it is necessary
to create a timer which runs every second and checks if the migration is
still active. If it is, the timer callback will re-schedule itself to run
one second in the future. If the migration has already finished, the
monitor lock is released and the user can use it normally.
All these changes should be transparent to the user.

Unfortunately, this conversion required an additional change.
In the old QMP command, the 'snapshot-file' argument is specified as
optional. The idea is to take the snapshot internally if 'snapshot-file'
is not passed. However, internal snapshots are not supported yet so
the command returns a MissingParamater error if 'snapshot-file' is not
passed. Which makes the argument actually required and will cause
compatibility breakage if we change that in the future.
To fix this the QAPI converted blockdev_snapshot_sync command makes the
'snapshot-file' argument required. Again, in practice it's actually required,
so this is not incompatible.
If we do implement internal snapshots someday, we'll need a new argument
for it.
Note that this discussion doesn't affect HMP.

There are three important remarks in relation to the non-qapi command:
1. This commit also fixes the behavior of the 'query-vnc' and 'info vnc'
commands to return an error when qemu is built without VNC support
(ie. --disable-vnc). The non-qapi command would return the OK
response in QMP and no response in HMP
2. The qapi version explicitly marks the fields 'host', 'family',
'service' and 'auth' as optional. Their are not documented as optional
in the non-qapi command doc, but they would not be returned if
vnc support is disabled. The qapi version maintains the same
semantics, but documents those fields correctly
3. The 'clients' field, which is a list, is marked as optional but is
always returned. If there are no clients connected an empty list
is returned. This is not the Right Way to this in the qapi but it's
how the non-qapi command used to work
