qdev: add user-specified identifier to devices.

Add id field to DeviceState. Make "info qtree" print it.

This helps users and management apps identifying devices in monitor
output, which is especially useful with otherwise identical devices
such as two virtio disks....

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....

qdev: add no_user, alias and desc

no_user: prevent users from adding certain devices.
desc: description of the device.
alias: to allow user friendly shortcuts on the command line, i.e.
-device usbmouse instead of -device "QEMU USB Mouse" or
-device lsi instead of -device lsi53c895a...

qdev: rework device properties.

This patch is a major overhaul of the device properties. The properties
are saved directly in the device state struct now, the linked list of
property values is gone.

Advantages: * We don't have to maintain the list with the property values....

qdev: replace bus_type enum with bus_info struct.

BusInfo is filled with name and size (pretty much like I did for
DeviceInfo as well). There is also a function pointer to print
bus-specific device information to the monitor. sysbus is hooked
up there, I've also added a print function for PCI....

qdev: remove DeviceType

The only purpose DeviceType serves is creating a linked list of
DeviceInfo structs. This removes DeviceType and add a next field to
DeviceInfo instead, so the DeviceInfo structs can be changed that way.
Elimitates a pointless extra level of indirection....

qdev: move name+size into DeviceInfo (v2)

Rationale: move device information from code to data structures.

v2: Adapt the drivers missed in the first version.

Record device property types

Record device property types, and provide a list of properties at device
registration time.

Add a "device" property type that holds a reference to annother device.

qdev: kill DeviceState->name

is redundant with DeviceState->type->name

Remove qdev irq sink handling

We have both IRQ sinks and GPIO inputs. These are in principle exactly
the same thing, so remove the former.

Add common BusState

Implement and use a common device bus state. The main side-effect is
that creating a bus and attaching it to a parent device are no longer
separate operations. For legacy code we allow a NULL parent, but that
should go away eventually....

Consistently use uint64_t for int properties

I apparently failed to do this properly on the first attempt.
