Code that doesn't want to know about current monitor vs. stdout vs. stderr takes an fprintf_function callback and a FILE * argument to pass to it. Actual arguments are either fprintf() and stdout or stderr, or monitor_fprintf() and the current monitor cast to FILE *. monitor_fprintf() casts it right back, and is otherwise identical to monitor_printf(). The type-punning is ugly. New qemu_fprintf() and qemu_vprintf() address this need without type punning: they are like fprintf() and vfprintf(), except they print to the current monitor when passed a null FILE *. The next commits will put them to use.
