QMP has its own dispatch table and documentation file
(qmp-commands.hx), we can now drop the following QMP specific info
from qemu-monitor.hx:
o SQMP/EQMP sections
o The qmp_capabilities command
o The query-commands command
However, note that QObject handlers entries are not being removed.
This will only happen when we introduce a proper QMP call interface.

This patch adds the trace-file command:
trace-file [on|off|flush]
Open, close, or flush the trace file. If no argument is given,
the status of the trace file is displayed.
The trace file is turned on by default but is only written out when the
trace buffer becomes full. The flush operation can be used to force
write out at any time.
Turning off the trace file does not change the state of trace events;
tracing will continue to the trace buffer. When the trace file is off,
use "info trace" to display the contents of the trace buffer in memory.

trace: Add options to specify trace file name at startup and runtime
This patch adds an optional command line switch '-trace' to specify the
filename to write traces to, when qemu starts.
Eg, If compiled with the 'simple' trace backend,
[temp@system]$ qemu -trace FILENAME IMAGE
Allows the binary traces to be written to FILENAME instead of the option
set at config-time.
Also, this adds monitor sub-command 'set' to trace-file commands to
dynamically change trace log file at runtime.
Eg,
(qemu)trace-file set FILENAME
This allows one to set trace outputs to FILENAME from the default
specified at startup.

This patch adds support for dynamically enabling/disabling of trace events.
This is done by internally maintaining each trace event's state, and
permitting logging of data from a trace event only if it is in an
'active' state.
Monitor commands added :
1) info trace-events : to view all available trace events and
their state.
2) trace-event NAME on|off : to enable/disable data logging from a
given trace event.
Eg, trace-event paio_submit off
disables logging of data when
paio_submit is hit.
By default, all trace-events are disabled. One can enable desired trace-events
via the monitor.

One of the most important missing feature in QMP today is its
supported commands documentation.
The plan is to make it part of self-description support, however
self-description is a big task we have been postponing for a
long time now and still don't know when it's going to be done.
In order not to compromise QMP adoption and make users' life easier,
this commit adds a simple text documentation which fully describes
all QMP supported commands.
This is not ideal for a number of reasons (harder to maintain,
text-only, etc) but does improve the current situation. To avoid at
least divering from the user monitor help and texi snippets, QMP bits
are also maintained inside qemu-monitor.hx, and hxtool is extended to
generate a single text file from them.

Short story: We don't want pci_add in QMP. Long story follows.
pci_add can do two things:
* Hot plug a PCI NIC. device_add is more general.
* Hot plug a PCI disk controller, and a drive connected to it.
The controller is either virtio-blk-pci (if=virtio) or lsi53c895a
(if=scsi). With the latter, the drive is optional. Use drive_add to
hotplug additional SCSI drives. Except drive_add is not available in
QMP.
device_add is more general for controllers and the guest part of
drives. I'm working on a more general alternative for the host part
of drives.
Why am I proposing to remove pci_add from QMP before its replacement is
ready? I want it out sooner rather than later, because it isn't fully
functional (errors and drive_add are missing), and we do not plan to
complete the job. In other words, it's not really usable over QMP now,
and it's not what we want for QMP anyway. Since we don't want it to be
used over QMP, we should take it out, not leave it around as a trap for
the uninitiated.
Dan Berrange confirmed that libvirt has no need for pci_add & friends
over QMP.

This command will be used to enable QMP capabilities advertised
by the capabilities array.
Note that it will be mandatory to issue this command in order
to make QMP functional (although this behavior is not being
enforced by this commit).
Also, as we don't have any capabilities yet, the new command
doesn't accept any arguments. I will postpone the decision for
a format for this until we get our first capability.
Finally, this command is visible from the user Monitor too, in
the meaning that you can execute it but it won't do anything.
Making it only visible in QMP is beyond this series' goal, as
it requires changes in unrelated places.

When using ballooning to manage overcommitted memory on a host, a system for
guests to communicate their memory usage to the host can provide information
that will minimize the impact of ballooning on the guests. The current method
employs a daemon running in each guest that communicates memory statistics to a
host daemon at a specified time interval. The host daemon aggregates this
information and inflates and/or deflates balloons according to the level of
host memory pressure. This approach is effective but overly complex since a
daemon must be installed inside each guest and coordinated to communicate with
the host. A simpler approach is to collect memory statistics in the virtio
balloon driver and communicate them directly to the hypervisor.
