This patch reworks the -monitor handling:
- It adds a new "mon" QemuOpts list for the monitor(s).
- It adds a monitor_parse() function to parse the -monitor switch.
- It adds a mon_init function to initialize the monitor(s) from the
"mon" QemuOpts list.
- It winds up everything and removes the old bits.

This patch adds infrastructure and command line option for setting
global defaults for device properties, i.e. you can for example use
-global virtio-blk-pci.vectors=0
to turn off msi by default for all virtio block devices. The config
file syntax is:
[global]
driver = "virtio-blk-pci"
property = "vectors"
value = "0"
This can also be used to set properties for devices which are not
created via -device but implicitly via machine init, i.e.
-global isa-fdc,driveA=<name>
This patch uses the mechanism which configures properties for the
compatibility machine types (pc-0.10 & friends). The command line
takes precedence over the machine type values.

The first step in porting -net to QemuOpts. We do not include parameter
descriptions in the QemuOptsList because we use the first parameter to
choose which descriptions validate against.

start switching chardevs to QemuOpts. This patch adds the
infrastructure and converts the null device.
The patch brings two new functions:
qemu_chr_open_opts()
same as qemu_chr_open(), but uses QemuOpts instead of a
option char string.
qemu_chr_parse_compat()
accepts a traditional chardev option string, returns the
corresponding QemuOpts instance, to handle backward
compatibility.
The patch also adds a new -chardev switch which can be used to create
named+unconnected chardevs, like this:
-chardev null,id=test
This uses the new qemu_chr_open_opts. Thus with this patch alone only
the null device works. The other devices will follow ...

Make -device switch use the QemuOpts framework.
Everything should continue to work like it did before.
New: "-set device.$id.$property=$value" works.

Message-Id:
One use case will be file for drives (no filename quoting issues), i.e.
-drive id=test,if=virtio
-set drive.test.file=/vmdisk/test-virtio.img
It will work for any other option (assuming handled by QemuOpts) though.
Except for id= for obvious reasons ;).
