Markus Armbruster f01338cce6 qapi: Speed up frontend tests
"make check-qapi-schema" takes around 10s user + system time for me.
With -j, it takes a bit over 3s real time.  We have worse tests.  It's
still annoying when you work on the QAPI generator.

Some 1.4s user + system time is consumed by make figuring out what to
do, measured by making a target that does nothing.  There's nothing I
can do about that right now.  But let's see what we can do about the
other 8s.

Almost 7s are spent running test-qapi.py for every test case, the rest
normalizing and diffing test-qapi.py output.  We have 190 test cases.

If I downgrade to python2, it's 4.5s, but python2 is a goner.

Hacking up test-qapi.py to exit(0) without doing anything makes it
only marginally faster.  The problem is Python startup overhead.

Our configure puts -B into $(PYTHON).  Running without -B is faster:
4.4s.

We could improve the Makefile to run test cases only when the test
case or the generator changed.  But I'm after improvement in the case
where the generator changed.

test-qapi.py is designed to be the simplest possible building block
for a shell script to do the complete job (it's actually a Makefile,
not a shell script; no real difference).  Python is just not meant for
that.  It's for bigger blocks.

Move the post-processing and diffing into test-qapi.py, and make it
capable of testing multiple schema files.  Set executable bits while
there.

Running it once per test case now takes slightly longer than 8s.  But
running it once for all of them takes under 0.2s.

Messing with the Makefile to run it only on the tests that need
retesting is clearly not worth the bother.

Expected error output changes because the new normalization strips off
$(SRCDIR)/tests/qapi-schema/ instead of just $(SRCDIR)/.

The .exit files go away, because there is no exit status to test
anymore.

Markus Armbruster c615550df3 qapi: Improve source file read error handling
qapi-gen.py crashes when it can't open the main schema file, and when
it can't read from any schema file.  Lazy.

Change QAPISchema.__init__() to take a file name instead of a file
object.  Move the open code from _include() to __init__(), so it's
used for the main schema file, too.

Move the read into the try for good measure, and rephrase the error
message.

Reporting open or read failure for the main schema file needs a
QAPISourceInfo representing "no source".  Make QAPISourceInfo cope
with fname=None.

Markus Armbruster af97502ce9 qapi: Improve include file name reporting in error messages
Error messages print absolute file names of included files even if the
user gave a relative one on the command line:

    $ PYTHONPATH=scripts python -B tests/qapi-schema/test-qapi.py tests/qapi-schema/include-cycle.json
    In file included from tests/qapi-schema/include-cycle.json:1:
    In file included from /work/armbru/qemu/tests/qapi-schema/include-cycle-b.json:1:
    /work/armbru/qemu/tests/qapi-schema/include-cycle-c.json:1: Inclusion loop for include-cycle.json

Improve this to

    In file included from tests/qapi-schema/include-cycle.json:1:
    In file included from tests/qapi-schema/include-cycle-b.json:1:
    tests/qapi-schema/include-cycle-c.json:1: Inclusion loop for include-cycle.json

The error message when an include file can't be opened prints the
include directive's file name, which is relative to the including
file.  Change this to print the file name relative to the working
directory.  Visible in tests/qapi-schema/include-no-file.err.

Lluís Vilanova a719a27c82 qapi: Add a primitive to include other files from a QAPI schema file
The primitive uses JSON syntax, and include paths are relative to the file using the directive:

  { 'include': 'path/to/file.json' }
