Anton Nefedov 7c44a2a9d1 char: forbid direct chardevice access for hotswap devices
qemu_chr_fe_get_driver() is unsafe, frontends with hotswap support
should not access CharDriver ptr directly as CharDriver might change.

Frontends should have an interface to setup the handler of a backend change.
The interface will be used in the next commits

Marc-André Lureau 1ce2610c10 char: make chr_fe_deinit() optionaly delete backend
This simplifies removing a backend for a frontend user (no need to
retrieve the associated driver and separate delete call etc).

NB: many frontends have questionable handling of ending a chardev. They
should probably delete the backend to prevent broken reusage.

Marc-André Lureau 4d43a603c7 char: move CharBackend handling in char-fe unit
Move all the frontend struct and methods to a seperate unit. This avoids
accidentally mixing backend and frontend calls, and helps with readabilty.

Make qemu_chr_replay() a macro shared by both char and char-fe.

Export qemu_chr_write(), and use a macro for qemu_chr_write_all()

(nb: yes, CharBackend is for char frontend :)
