In QAPI, absent optional members are distinct from any present value.
We thus represent an optional schema member FOO as two C members: a
FOO with the member's type, and a bool has_FOO. Likewise for function
arguments.
However, has_FOO is actually redundant for a pointer-valued FOO, which
can be null only when has_FOO is false, i.e. has_FOO == !!FOO. Except
for arrays, where we a null FOO can also be a present empty array.
The redundant has_FOO are a nuisance to work with. Improve the
generator to elide them. Uses of has_FOO need to be replaced as
follows.
Tests of has_FOO become the equivalent comparison of FOO with null.
For brevity, this is commonly done by implicit conversion to bool.
Assignments to has_FOO get dropped.
Likewise for arguments to has_FOO parameters.
Beware: code may violate the invariant has_FOO == !!FOO before the
transformation, and get away with it. The above transformation can
then break things. Two cases:
* Absent: if code ignores FOO entirely when !has_FOO (except for
freeing it if necessary), even non-null / uninitialized FOO works.
Such code is known to exist.
* Present: if code ignores FOO entirely when has_FOO, even null FOO
works. Such code should not exist.
In both cases, replacing tests of has_FOO by FOO reverts their sense.
We have to fix the value of FOO then.
To facilitate review of the necessary updates to handwritten code, add
means to opt out of this change, and opt out for all QAPI schema
modules where the change requires updates to handwritten code. The
next few commits will remove these opt-outs in reviewable chunks, then
drop the means to opt out.

The generated visitor functions call visit_deprecated_accept() and
visit_deprecated() when visiting a struct member with special feature
flag 'deprecated'. This makes the feature flag visible to the actual
visitors. I want to make feature flag 'unstable' visible there as
well, so I can add policy for it.
To let me make it visible, replace these functions by
visit_policy_reject() and visit_policy_skip(), which take the member's
special features as an argument. Note that the new functions have the
opposite sense, i.e. the return value flips.

It does happen to be a list (as of now), but we can describe it in more
general terms with no loss in accuracy to allow tuples and other
constructs.
In the future, we can write "ifcond: Sequence[str] = ()" as a default
parameter, which we could not do safely with a Mutable type like a List.

For everything typed so far, type this parameter as
Optional[QAPISourceInfo].
In the most generic case, QAPISchemaEntity's info field may be None to
represent types that come from built-in definitions. Although some
Entity types may not currently have any built-in definitions, it is not
easily possible to constrain the type except on an ad-hoc basis using
assertions.
It's easier and simpler, then, to just say it's always an Optional type.

All of the QAPI include statements are changed to be package-aware, as
explicit relative imports.
A quirk of Python packages is that the name of the package exists only
*outside* of the package. This means that to a module inside of the qapi
folder, there is inherently no such thing as the "qapi" package. The
reason these imports work is because the "qapi" package exists in the
context of the caller -- the execution shim, where sys.path includes a
directory that has a 'qapi' folder in it.
When we write "from qapi import sibling", we are NOT referencing the folder
'qapi', but rather "any package named qapi in sys.path". If you should
so happen to have a 'qapi' package in your path, it will use *that*
package.
When we write "from .sibling import foo", we always reference explicitly
our sibling module; guaranteeing consistency in *where* we are importing
these modules from.
This can be useful when working with virtual environments and packages
in development mode. In development mode, a package is installed as a
series of symlinks that forwards to your same source files. The problem
arises because code quality checkers will follow "import qapi.x" to the
"installed" version instead of the sibling file and -- even though they
are the same file -- they have different module paths, and this causes
cyclic import problems, false positive type mismatch errors, and more.
It can also be useful when dealing with hierarchical packages, e.g. if
we allow qemu.core.qmp, qemu.qapi.parser, etc.

To make deallocating partially constructed objects work, the
visit_type_STRUCT() need to succeed without doing anything when passed
a null object.
Commit cdd2b228b9 "qapi: Smooth visitor error checking in generated
code" broke that. To reproduce, run tests/test-qobject-input-visitor
with AddressSanitizer:
==4353==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
Direct leak of 16 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:

SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: 16 byte(s) leaked in 1 allocation(s).
Test case /visitor/input/fail/struct-in-list feeds a list with a bad
element to the QObject input visitor. Visiting that element duly
fails, and aborts the visit with the list only partially constructed:
the faulty object is null. Cleaning up the partially constructed list
visits that null object, fails, and aborts the visit before the list
node gets freed.
Fix the the generated visit_type_STRUCT() to succeed for null objects.

An alternate type's visit_type_FOO() fails when it runs into an
invalid ->type.
This is appropriate with an input visitor: visit_start_alternate()
sets ->type according to the input, and bad input can lead to bad
->type.
It should never happen with an output, clone or dealloc visitor: if it
did, the alternate being output, cloned or deallocated would be messed
up beyond repair. Assert that.

An alternate type's visit_type_FOO() fails when it runs into an
invalid ->type. If it's an input visit, we then need to free the the
object we got from visit_start_alternate(). We do that with
qapi_free_FOO(), which uses the dealloc visitor.
Trouble is that object is in a bad state: its ->type is invalid. So
the dealloc visitor will run into the same error again, and the error
recovery skips deallocating the alternate's (invalid) alternative.
Works, because qapi_free_FOO() ignores the error.
Avoid it instead: free the messed up object with by g_free().
