A couple of improvements to tracing that have come out of helping
people with migration problems:
* vmstate_n_elems trace the count/name - for when you have problems
getting array counts right
* vmstate_subsection_load_bad - add the idstr, for when you receive a
subsection you weren't expecting.

Type QJSON lets you build JSON text. Its interface mirrors (a subset
of) abstract JSON syntax.
QAPI output visitors also produce JSON text. They assert their
preconditions and invariants, and therefore abort on incorrect use.
Contrastingly, QJSON does *not* detect incorrect use. It happily
produces invalid JSON then. This is what migration wants.
QJSON was designed for migration, and migration is its only user.
Move it to migration/ for proper coverage by MAINTAINERS, and to deter
accidental use outside migration.
[Pointed out by Eric: QJSON was added in commits 0457d07..b174257

qemu_peek_buffer currently copies the data it reads into a buffer,
however a future patch wants access to the buffer without the copy,
hence rework to remove the copy to the layer above.

We create optional sections with this patch. But we already have
optional subsections. Instead of having two mechanism that do the
same, we can just generalize it.
For subsections we just change:
- Add a needed function to VMStateDescription
- Remove VMStateSubsection (after removal of the needed function
it is just a VMStateDescription)
- Adjust the whole tree, moving the needed function to the corresponding
VMStateDescription

One of the annoyances of the current migration format is the fact that
it's not self-describing. In fact, it's not properly describing at all.
Some code randomly scattered throughout QEMU elaborates roughly how to
read and write a stream of bytes.
We discussed an idea during KVM Forum 2013 to add a JSON description of
the migration protocol itself to the migration stream. This patch
adds a section after the VM_END migration end marker that contains
description data on what the device sections of the stream are composed of.
This approach is backwards compatible with any QEMU version reading the
stream, because QEMU just stops reading after the VM_END marker and ignores
any data following it.
With an additional external program this allows us to decipher the
contents of any migration stream and hopefully make migration bugs easier
to track down.

The migration code now occupies a fair chunk of the top level .c
files, it seems time to give it it's own directory.
I've not touched:
arch_init.c - that's mostly RAM migration but has a few random other
bits
savevm.c - because it's built target specific
This is purely a code move; no code has changed.
- it fails checkpatch because of old violations, it feels safer
to keep this as purely a move and fix those at some mythical future
date.
The xbzrle and vmstate tests are now only run for softmmu builds
since they require files in the migrate/ directory which is only built
for softmmu.
