No code actually depend on specific errno values returned by
vmstate_load_state. The only use of it is to check for success,
and sometimes inject numeric error values into error messages
in migration code. The latter is not a stopper for gradual
conversion to "errp + bool return value" APIs.
Big analysis of vmstate_load_state() callers, showing that
specific errno values are not actually used, is done by Peter
here:

Converting of vmstate_load_state() itself will follow in
another series.

Add the cpr-exec migration mode. Usage:
qemu-system-$arch -machine aux-ram-share=on ...
migrate_set_parameter mode cpr-exec
migrate_set_parameter cpr-exec-command \
<arg1> <arg2> ... -incoming <uri-1> \
migrate -d <uri-1>
The migrate command stops the VM, saves state to uri-1,
directly exec's a new version of QEMU on the same host,
replacing the original process while retaining its PID, and
loads state from uri-1. Guest RAM is preserved in place,
albeit with new virtual addresses.
The new QEMU process is started by exec'ing the command
specified by the @cpr-exec-command parameter. The first word of
the command is the binary, and the remaining words are its
arguments. The command may be a direct invocation of new QEMU,
or may be a non-QEMU command that exec's the new QEMU binary.
This mode creates a second migration channel that is not visible
to the user. At the start of migration, old QEMU saves CPR state
to the second channel, and at the end of migration, it tells the
main loop to call cpr_exec. New QEMU loads CPR state early, before
objects are created.
Because old QEMU terminates when new QEMU starts, one cannot
stream data between the two, so uri-1 must be a type,
such as a file, that accepts all data before old QEMU exits.
Otherwise, old QEMU may quietly block writing to the channel.
Memory-backend objects must have the share=on attribute, but
memory-backend-epc is not supported. The VM must be started with
the '-machine aux-ram-share=on' option, which allows anonymous
memory to be transferred in place to the new process. The memfds
are kept open across exec by clearing the close-on-exec flag, their
values are saved in CPR state, and they are mmap'd in new QEMU.

The load procedure of VFIO PCI devices involves setting up IRT
for each VFIO PCI devices. This requires determining whether an
interrupt is single-destination interrupt to decide between
Posted Interrupt(PI) or remapping mode for the IRTE. However,
determining this may require accessing the VM's APIC registers.
For example:
ioctl(vbasedev->fd, VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS, irqs)
...
kvm_arch_irq_bypass_add_producer
kvm_x86_call(pi_update_irte)
vmx_pi_update_irte
kvm_intr_is_single_vcpu
If the LAPIC has not been loaded yet, interrupts will use remapping
mode. To prevent the fallback of interrupt mode, keep APIC is always
loaded prior to VFIO PCI devices.

- We need to have good error reporting in the callbacks in
VMStateDescription struct. Specifically pre_save, pre_load
and post_load callbacks.
- It is not possible to change these functions everywhere in one
patch, therefore, we introduce a duplicate set of callbacks
with Error object passed to them.
- So, in this commit, we implement 'errp' variants of these callbacks,
introducing an explicit Error object parameter.
- This is a functional step towards transitioning the entire codebase
to the new error-parameterized functions.
- Deliberately called in mutual exclusion from their counterparts,
to prevent conflicts during the transition.
- New impls should preferentally use 'errp' variants of
these methods, and existing impls incrementally converted.
The variants without 'errp' are intended to be removed
once all usage is converted.

This commit removes the redundant vmstate_save_state_with_err()
function.
Previously, commit 969298f9d7 introduced vmstate_save_state_with_err()
to handle error propagation, while vmstate_save_state() existed for
non-error scenarios.
This is because there were code paths where vmstate_save_state_v()
(called internally by vmstate_save_state) did not explicitly set
errors on failure.
This change unifies error handling by
- updating vmstate_save_state() to accept an Error **errp argument.
- vmstate_save_state_v() ensures errors are set directly within the errp
object, eliminating the need for two separate functions.
All calls to vmstate_save_state_with_err() are replaced with
vmstate_save_state(). This simplifies the API and improves code
maintainability.
vmstate_save_state() that only calls vmstate_save_state_v(),
by inference, also has errors set in errp in case of failure.
The errors are reported using error_report_err().
If we want the function to exit on error, then &error_fatal is
passed.

This is an incremental step in converting vmstate loading
code to report error via Error objects instead of directly
printing it to console/monitor.
It is ensured that vmstate_load_state() must report an error
in errp, in case of failure.
The errors are temporarily reported using error_report_err().
This is removed in the subsequent patches in this series,
when we are actually able to propagate the error to the calling
function using errp. Whereas, if we want the function to exit on
error, then error_fatal is passed.

Now after merging the precopy and postcopy version of complete() hook,
rename the precopy version from save_live_complete_precopy() to
save_complete().
Dropping the "live" when at it, because it's in most cases not live when
happening (in precopy).
No functional change intended.

Add the helper function cpr_get_fd_param, to use when preserving
a file descriptor that is opened externally and passed to QEMU.
cpr_get_fd_param returns a descriptor number either from a QEMU
command-line parameter, from a getfd command, or from CPR state.
When a descriptor is passed to new QEMU via SCM_RIGHTS, its number
changes. Hence, during CPR, the command-line parameter is ignored
in new QEMU, and over-ridden by the value found in CPR state.
Similarly, if the descriptor was originally specified by a getfd
command in old QEMU, the fd number is not known outside of QEMU,
and it changes when sent to new QEMU via SCM_RIGHTS. Hence the
user cannot send getfd to new QEMU, but when the user sends a
hotplug command that references the fd, cpr_get_fd_param finds
its value in CPR state.
