The -msg timestamp=on|off option controls whether a timestamp is printed
with error_report() messages. The "-msg" name suggests that this option
has a wider effect than just error_report(). The next patch extends it
to the 'log' trace backend, so rename the variable from
error_with_timestamp to message_with_timestamp.

This is followup patch to the one submitted back in Oct, 19
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-10/msg02102.html
My mistake here, I took my eyes of the mailing list after I got the
initial thumbs up. This patch follows up on Markus comments in the
above link.
Purpose of this patch:
We want to print guest name for errors, warnings and info messages. This
was the first of two patches the second being MCE errors targeting a VM
with guest name prepended. But in a large fleet we see many other
errors that disable a VM or crash it. In a large fleet and centralized
logging having the guest name enables identify of owner and customer.

-msg parameter "timestamp" defaults to "off" if you don't specify msg,
and to "on" if you do. Messed up right in commit 5e2ac51917 "add
timestamp to error_report()". Mostly harmless, because "timestamp" is
the only parameter, so "if you do" is "-msg ''", which nobody does.
Change the default to "off" no matter what.
While there, rename enable_timestamp_msg to error_with_timestamp, and
polish documentation.

printf() & friends return the number of characters written on success,
negative value on error.
monitor_printf(), monitor_vfprintf(), monitor_vprintf(),
error_printf(), error_printf_unless_qmp(), error_vprintf(), and
error_vprintf_unless_qmp() return void. Some of them carry a TODO
comment asking for int instead.
Improve them to return int like printf() does.
This makes our use of monitor_printf() as fprintf_function slightly
less dirty: the function cast no longer adds a return value that isn't
there. It still changes a parameter's pointer type. That will be
addressed in a future commit.
monitor_vfprintf() always returns zero. Improve it to return the
proper value.

This commit adds a error_init() helper which calls
g_log_set_default_handler() so that glib logs (g_log, g_warning, ...)
are handled similarly to other QEMU logs. This means they will get a
timestamp if timestamps are enabled, and they will go through the
HMP monitor if one is configured.
This commit also adds a call to error_init() to the binaries
installed by QEMU. Since error_init() also calls error_set_progname(),
this means that *-linux-user, *-bsd-user and qemu-pr-helper messages
output with error_report, info_report, ... will slightly change: they
will be prefixed by the binary name.
glib debug messages are enabled through G_MESSAGES_DEBUG similarly to
the glib default log handler.
At the moment, this change will mostly impact SPICE logging if your
spice version is >= 0.14.1. With older spice versions, this is not going
to work as expected, but will not have any ill effect, so this call is
not conditional on the SPICE version.

Add two functions to print an error/warning report once depending
on a passed-in condition variable and flip it if printed. This is
useful if you want to print a message not once-globally, but e.g.
once-per-device.
Inspired by warn_once() in hw/vfio/ccw.c, which has been replaced
with warn_report_once_cond().

There are many error_report()s that can be used in frequently called
functions, especially on IO paths. That can be unideal in that
malicious guest can try to trigger the error tons of time which might
use up the log space on the host (e.g., libvirt can capture the stderr
of QEMU and put it persistently onto disk). In VT-d emulation code, we
have trace_vtd_error() tracer. AFAIU all those places can be replaced
by something like error_report() but trace points are mostly used to
avoid the DDOS attack that mentioned above. However using trace points
mean that errors are not dumped if trace not enabled.
It's not a big deal in most modern server managements since we have
things like logrotate to maintain the logs and make sure the quota is
expected. However it'll still be nice that we just provide another way
to restrict message generations. In most cases, this kind of
error_report()s will only provide valid information on the first message
sent, and all the rest of similar messages will be mostly talking about
the same thing. This patch introduces *_report_once() helpers to allow
a message to be dumped only once during one QEMU process's life cycle.
It will make sure: (1) it's on by deffault, so we can even get something
without turning the trace on and reproducing, and (2) it won't be
affected by DDOS attack.
To implement it, I stole the printk_once() macro from Linux.

Add warn_report(), warn_vreport() for reporting warnings, and
info_report(), info_vreport() for informational messages.
These are implemented them with a helper function factored out of
error_vreport(), suitably generalized. This patch makes no changes
to the output of the original error_report() function.

Leave the implementation of error_vprintf and error_vprintf_unless_qmp
(the latter now trivially wrapped by error_printf_unless_qmp) to
libqemustub.a and monitor.c. This has two advantages: it lets us
remove the monitor_printf and monitor_vprintf stubs, and it lets
tests provide a different implementation of the functions that uses
g_test_message.

[Issue]
When we offer a customer support service and a problem happens
in a customer's system, we try to understand the problem by
comparing what the customer reports with message logs of the
customer's system.
In this case, we often need to know when the problem happens.
But, currently, there is no timestamp in qemu's error messages.
Therefore, we may not be able to understand the problem based on
error messages.
[Solution]
Add a timestamp to qemu's error message logged by
error_report() with g_time_val_to_iso8601().
