Andrea Bolognani f7160f3218 schemas: Add vim modeline
The various schemas included in QEMU use a JSON-based format which
is, however, strictly speaking not valid JSON.

As a consequence, when vim tries to apply syntax highlight rules
for JSON (as guessed from the file name), the result is an unreadable
mess which mostly consist of red markers pointing out supposed errors
in, well, pretty much everything.

Using Python syntax highlighting produces much better results, and
in fact these files already start with specially-formatted comments
that instruct Emacs to process them as if they were Python files.

This commit adds the equivalent special comments for vim.

Daniel P. Berrange c8c99887d1 authz: add QAuthZList object type for an access control list
Add a QAuthZList object type that implements the QAuthZ interface. This
built-in implementation maintains a trivial access control list with a
sequence of match rules and a final default policy. This replicates the
functionality currently provided by the qemu_acl module.

To create an instance of this object via the QMP monitor, the syntax
used would be:

  {
    "execute": "object-add",
    "arguments": {
      "qom-type": "authz-list",
      "id": "authz0",
      "props": {
        "rules": [
           { "match": "fred", "policy": "allow", "format": "exact" },
           { "match": "bob", "policy": "allow", "format": "exact" },
           { "match": "danb", "policy": "deny", "format": "glob" },
           { "match": "dan*", "policy": "allow", "format": "exact" },
        ],
        "policy": "deny"
      }
    }
  }

This sets up an authorization rule that allows 'fred', 'bob' and anyone
whose name starts with 'dan', except for 'danb'. Everyone unmatched is
denied.

It is not currently possible to create this via -object, since there is
no syntax supported to specify non-scalar properties for objects. This
is likely to be addressed by later support for using JSON with -object,
or an equivalent approach.

In any case the future "authz-listfile" object can be used from the
CLI and is likely a better choice, as it allows the ACL to be refreshed
automatically on change.
