Recent commit 6952026120 "monitor: Tidy up find_device_state()"
assumed the function's argument is "the device's ID or QOM path" (as
documented for device_del). It's actually either an absolute QOM
path, or a QOM path relative to /machine/peripheral/. Such a relative
path is a device ID when it doesn't contain a slash. When it does,
the function now always fails. Broke iotest 200, which uses relative
path "vda/virtio-backend".
It fails because object_resolve_path_component() resolves just one
component, not a relative path.
The obvious function to resolve relative paths is
object_resolve_path(). It picks a parent automatically. Too much
magic, we want to specify the parent. Create new
object_resolve_path_at() for that, and use it in find_device_state().
