This adds a function that adds all entries of a QDict to a QemuOpts if
the keys are known, and leaves only the rest in the QDict.
This way a single QDict of -drive options can be processed in multiple
places (generic block layer, block driver, backing file block driver,
etc.), where each part picks the options it knows. If at the end of the
process the QDict isn't empty, the user specified an invalid option.

commit 8be7e7e4 and commit ec7b2ccb messed up the ordering of error
message and the helpful explanation that should follow it, like this:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 --nodefaults -S --vnc :0 --chardev null,id=,
Identifiers consist of letters, digits, '-', '.', '_', starting with a letter.
qemu-system-x86_64: -chardev null,id=,: Parameter 'id' expects an identifier
$ qemu-system-x86_64 --nodefaults -S --vnc :0 --machine kvm_shadow_mem=dunno
You may use k, M, G or T suffixes for kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes and terabytes.
qemu-system-x86_64: -machine kvm_shadow_mem=dunno: Parameter 'kvm_shadow_mem' expects a size
Pity. Disable them for now.
