Peter Maydell c8057f951d Support 'help' as a synonym for '?' in command line options
For command line options which permit '?' meaning 'please list the
permitted values', add support for 'help' as a synonym, by abstracting
the check out into a helper function.

This change means that in some cases where we were being lazy in
our string parsing, "?junk" will now be rejected as an invalid option
rather than being (undocumentedly) treated the same way as "?".

Update the documentation to use 'help' rather than '?', since '?'
is a shell metacharacter and thus prone to fail confusingly if there
is a single character filename in the current working directory and
the '?' has not been escaped. It's therefore better to steer users
towards 'help', though '?' is retained for backwards compatibility.

We do not, however, update the output of the system emulator's -help
(or any documentation autogenerated from the qemu-options.hx which
is the source of the -help text) because libvirt parses our -help
output and will break. At a later date when QEMU provides a better
interface so libvirt can avoid having to do this, we can update the
-help text too.

Luiz Capitulino 8be7e7e4c7 qemu-option: qemu_opts_create(): use error_set()
This commit converts qemu_opts_create() from qerror_report() to
error_set().

Currently, most calls to qemu_opts_create() can't fail, so most
callers don't need any changes.

The two cases where code checks for qemu_opts_create() erros are:

 1. Initialization code in vl.c. All of them print their own
    error messages directly to stderr, no need to pass the Error
    object

 2. The functions opts_parse(), qemu_opts_from_qdict() and
    qemu_chr_parse_compat() make use of the error information and
    they can be called from HMP or QMP. In this case, to allow for
    incremental conversion, we propagate the error up using
    qerror_report_err(), which keeps the QError semantics

Luiz Capitulino 0461d5a699 RunState: Rename enum values as generated by the QAPI
Next commit will convert the query-status command to use the
RunState type as generated by the QAPI.

In order to "transparently" replace the current enum by the QAPI
one, we have to make some changes to some enum values.

As the changes are simple renames, I'll do them in one shot. The
changes are:

 - Rename the prefix from RSTATE_ to RUN_STATE_
 - RUN_STATE_SAVEVM to RUN_STATE_SAVE_VM
 - RUN_STATE_IN_MIGRATE to RUN_STATE_INMIGRATE
 - RUN_STATE_PANICKED to RUN_STATE_INTERNAL_ERROR
 - RUN_STATE_POST_MIGRATE to RUN_STATE_POSTMIGRATE
 - RUN_STATE_PRE_LAUNCH to RUN_STATE_PRELAUNCH
 - RUN_STATE_PRE_MIGRATE to RUN_STATE_PREMIGRATE
 - RUN_STATE_RESTORE to RUN_STATE_RESTORE_VM
 - RUN_STATE_PRE_MIGRATE to RUN_STATE_FINISH_MIGRATE

Luiz Capitulino 1dfb4dd993 Replace the VMSTOP macros with a proper state type
Today, when notifying a VM state change with vm_state_notify(),
we pass a VMSTOP macro as the 'reason' argument. This is not ideal
because the VMSTOP macros tell why qemu stopped and not exactly
what the current VM state is.

One example to demonstrate this problem is that vm_start() calls
vm_state_notify() with reason=0, which turns out to be VMSTOP_USER.

This commit fixes that by replacing the VMSTOP macros with a proper
state type called RunState.

Jan Kiszka e07bbac542 Improve vm_stop reason declarations
Define and use dedicated constants for vm_stop reasons, they actually
have nothing to do with the EXCP_* defines used so far. At this chance,
specify more detailed reasons so that VM state change handlers can
evaluate them.

Switch tree to lookup-by-name using qemu_find_opts().
Also hook up virtfs options so qemu_find_opts works for them too.

Blue Swirl 72cf2d4f0e Fix sys-queue.h conflict for good
Problem: Our file sys-queue.h is a copy of the BSD file, but there are
some additions and it's not entirely compatible. Because of that, there have
been conflicts with system headers on BSD systems. Some hacks have been
introduced in the commits 15cc923584,
f40d753718,
96555a96d7 and
3990d09adf but the fixes were fragile.

Solution: Avoid the conflict entirely by renaming the functions and the
file. Revert the previous hacks.

Markus Armbruster 09aaa1602f qdev: convert watchdogs
-watchdog NAME is now equivalent to -device NAME, except it treats
option argument '?' specially, and supports only one watchdog.

A side effect is that a device created with -watchdog may now receive
a different PCI address.

i6300esb is now available on any machine with a PCI bus, not just PCs.
ib700 is still PC only, but that could be changed easily.

The only remaining use of struct WatchdogTimerModel and
watchdog_add_model() is supporting '-watchdog ?'.  Should be replaced
by searching device_info_list for watchdog devices when we can
identify them there.

Also fixes ib700 not to use vm_clock before it is initialized: in
wdt_ib700_init(), called from register_watchdogs(), which runs before
init_timers().  The bug made ib700_write_enable_reg() crash in
qemu_del_timer().
