The QmpOutputVisitor has no direct dependency on QMP. It is
valid to use it anywhere that one wants a QObject. Rename it
to better reflect its functionality as a generic QAPI
to QObject converter.
The commit before previous renamed the files, this one renames C
identifiers.

valid to use them anywhere that one has a QObject. Rename them
to better reflect their functionality as a generic QObject
to QAPI converter.
This is the first of three parts: rename the files. The next two
parts will rename C identifiers. The split is necessary to make git
rename detection work.

Making each output visitor provide its own output collection
function was the only remaining reason for exposing visitor
sub-types to the rest of the code base. Add a polymorphic
visit_complete() function which is a no-op for input visitors,
and which populates an opaque pointer for output visitors. For
maximum type-safety, also add a parameter to the output visitor
constructors with a type-correct version of the output pointer,
and assert that the two uses match.
This approach was considered superior to either passing the
output parameter only during construction (action at a distance
during visit_free() feels awkward) or only during visit_complete()
(defeating type safety makes it easier to use incorrectly).
Most callers were function-local, and therefore a mechanical
conversion; the testsuite was a bit trickier, but the previous
cleanup patch minimized the churn here.
The visit_complete() function may be called at most once; doing
so lets us use transfer semantics rather than duplication or
ref-count semantics to get the just-built output back to the
caller, even though it means our behavior is not idempotent.

qmp_output_visitor_cleanup(); however, we still need to
expose the subtype for qmp_output_get_qobject().

Now that we have a polymorphic visit_free(), we no longer need
qmp_input_visitor_cleanup(); which in turn means we no longer
need to return a subtype from qmp_input_visitor_new() nor a
public upcast function.

Backports commit b70ce1018a251c0c33498d9c927a07cade655a5e from qemu
The following uses of a QMP input visitor should be strict
(that is, excess keys in QDict input should be flagged if not
converted to QAPI):
- Testsuite code unrelated to explicitly testing non-strict
mode (test-qmp-commands, test-visitor-serialization); since
we want more code to be strict by default, having more tests
of strict mode doesn't hurt
- Code used for cloning QAPI objects (replay-input.c,
qemu-sockets.c); we are reparsing a QObject just barely
produced by the qmp output visitor and which therefore should
not have any garbage, so while it is extra work to be strict,
it validates that our clone is correct [note that a later patch
series will simplify these two uses by creating an actual
clone visitor that is much more efficient than a
generate/reparse cycle]
- qmp_object_add(), which calls into user_creatable_add_type().
Since command line parsing for '-object' uses the same
user_creatable_add_type() through the OptsVisitor, and that is
always strict, we want to ensure that any nested dictionaries
would be treated the same in QMP and from the command line (I
don't actually know if such nested dictionaries exist). Note
that on this code change, strictness only matters for nested
dictionaries (if even possible), since we already flag excess
input at the top level during an earlier object_property_set()
on an unknown key, whether from QemuOpts:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -nodefaults -qmp stdio -object secret,id=sec0,data=letmein,format=raw,foo=bar
qemu-system-x86_64: -object secret,id=sec0,data=letmein,format=raw,foo=bar: Property '.foo' not found
or from QMP:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -nodefaults -qmp stdio
{"QMP": {"version": {"qemu": {"micro": 93, "minor": 5, "major": 2}, "package": ""}, "capabilities": []}}
{"execute":"qmp_capabilities"}
{"return": {}}
{"execute":"object-add","arguments":{"qom-type":"secret","id":"sec0","props":{"format":"raw","data":"letmein","foo":"bar"}}}
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Property '.foo' not found"}}
The only remaining uses of non-strict input visits are:
- QMP 'qom-set' (which eventually executes
object_property_set_qobject()) - mark it as something to revisit
in the future (I didn't want to spend any more time on this patch
auditing if we have any QOM dictionary properties that might be
impacted, and couldn't easily prove whether this code path is
shared with anything else).
- test-qmp-input-visitor: explicit tests of non-strict mode. If
we later get rid of users that don't need strictness, then this
test should be merged with test-qmp-input-strict

Rather than having two separate ways to create a QMP input
visitor, where the safer approach has the more verbose name,
it is better to consolidate things into a single function
where the caller must explicitly choose whether to be strict
or to ignore excess input. This patch is the strictly
mechanical conversion; the next patch will then audit which
uses can be made stricter.
Backports commit fc471c18d5d2ec713d5a019f9530398675494bc8 from qemu
Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all
of them" to less than a third. Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one.
Backports commit da34e65cb4025728566d6504a99916f6e7e1dd6a from qemu
We had some pointless differences in the generated code for visit,
command marshalling, and events; unifying them makes it easier for
future patches to consolidate to common helper functions.
This is one patch of a series to clean up these differences.
This patch names the local visitor variable 'v' rather than 'm'.
Related objects, such as 'QapiDeallocVisitor', are also named by
their initials instead of an unrelated leading m.
No change in semantics to the generated code.
