New option parameters unstable-input and unstable-output set policy
for unstable interfaces just like deprecated-input and
deprecated-output set policy for deprecated interfaces (see commit
6dd75472d5 "qemu-options: New -compat to set policy for deprecated
interfaces"). This is intended for testing users of the management
interfaces. It is experimental.
For now, this covers only syntactic aspects of QMP, i.e. stuff tagged
with feature 'unstable'. We may want to extend it to cover semantic
aspects, or the command line.
Note that there is no good way for management application to detect
presence of these new option parameters: they are not visible output
of query-qmp-schema or query-command-line-options. Tolerable, because
it's meant for testing. If running with -compat fails, skip the test.

[Doc comments fixed up]
The code to check enumeration value policy can see special feature
flag 'deprecated' in QEnumLookup member flags[value]. I want to make
feature flag 'unstable' visible there as well, so I can add policy for
it.
Instead of extending flags[], replace it by @special_features (a
bitset of QapiSpecialFeature), because that's how special features get
passed around elsewhere.

New enum QapiSpecialFeature enumerates the special feature flags.
New helper gen_special_features() returns code to represent a
collection of special feature flags as a bitset.
The next few commits will put them to use.

This copies the code implementing the policy from qapi/qmp-dispatch.c
to qapi/qobject-input-visitor.c. Tolerable, but if we acquire more
copies, we should look into factoring them out.

Similar to the existing QAPI_LIST_PREPEND, but designed for use where
we want to preserve insertion order. Callers will be added in
upcoming patches. Note the difference in signature: PREPEND takes
List*, APPEND takes List**.

OptsVisitor, StringInputVisitor and the keyval visitor have
three different ideas of how a human could write the value of
a boolean option. Pay homage to the backwards-compatibility
gods and make the new common helper accept all four sets (on/off,
true/false, y/n and yes/no), but remove case-insensitivity.
Since OptsVisitor is supposed to match qemu-options, adjust
it as well.

block.c has a useful macro QAPI_LIST_ADD() for inserting at the front
of any QAPI-generated list; move it from block.c to qapi/util.h so
more places can use it, including one earlier place in block.c, and
rename it to something more obvious (since we also have a lot of
places that append, rather than prepend, to a list).
There are many more places in the codebase that can benefit from using
the macro, but converting them will be left to later patches.
In theory, all QAPI list types are child classes of GenericList; but
in practice, that relationship is not explicitly spelled out in the C
type declarations (rather, it is something that happens implicitly due
to C compatible layouts), and the macro does not actually depend on
the GenericList type. We considered moving GenericList from visitor.h
into util.h to group related code; however, such a move would be
awkward if we do not also move GenericAlternate. Unfortunately,
moving GenericAlternate would introduce its own problems of
declaration circularity (qapi-builtin-types.h needs a complete
definition of QEnumLookup from util.h, but GenericAlternate needs a
complete definition of QType from qapi-builtin-types.h).

Currently, a FOO_lookup is an array of strings terminated by a NULL
sentinel.
A future patch will generate enums with "holes". NULL-termination
will cease to work then.
To prepare for that, store the length in the FOO_lookup by wrapping it
in a struct and adding a member for the length.
The sentinel will be dropped next.

The enum string table parameters in various QOM/QAPI methods
are declared 'const char *strings[]'. This results in const
warnings if passed a variable that was declared as
static const char * const strings[] = { .... };
Add the extra const annotation to the parameters, since
neither the string elements, nor the array itself should
ever be modified.
