qdev/compat: compat property infrastructure.

This add support for switching devices into a compatibility mode
using device properties. Machine types can have a list of properties
for specific devices attached to allow the easy creation of machine
types compatible to older qemu versions....

honor -S on incoming migration

-S is not honored by qemu on incoming migration. If a domain is migrated
while paused, thus, it will start running on the remote machine; this
is wrong.

Given the trivial patch to fix this, it looks more like a thinko
than anything else, probably dating back to the qemu-kvm merge....

startup of the guest. After reboot, qemu will switch back to the default
