This adds and parses the --monitor option, so that a QMP monitor can be
used in the storage daemon. The monitor offers commands defined in the
QAPI schema at storage-daemon/qapi/qapi-schema.json.
The --monitor options currently allows to create multiple monitors with
the same ID. This part of the interface is considered unstable. We will
reject such configurations as soon as we have a design for the monitor
subsystem to perform these checks. (In the system emulator, we depend on
QemuOpts rejecting duplicate IDs.)

This adds a --chardev option to the storage daemon that works the same
as the -chardev option of the system emulator.
The syntax of the --chardev option is still considered unstable. We want
to QAPIfy it and will potentially make changes to its syntax while
converting it. However, we haven't decided yet on a design for the
QAPIfication, so QemuOpts will have to do for now.

Instead of exiting after processing all command line options, start a
main loop and keep processing events until exit is requested with a
signal (e.g. SIGINT).
Now qemu-storage-daemon can be used as an alternative for qemu-nbd that
provides a few features that were previously only available from QMP,
such as access to options only available with -blockdev and the socket
types 'vsock' and 'fd'.

Add a --export option to qemu-storage-daemon to export a block node. For
now, only NBD exports are implemented. Apart from the 'type' option
(which is the implied key), it maps the arguments for nbd-server-add to
the command line. Example:
--export nbd,device=disk,name=test-export,writable=on

Add a --nbd-server option to qemu-storage-daemon to start the built-in
NBD server right away. It maps the arguments for nbd-server-start to the
command line, with the exception that it uses SocketAddress instead of
SocketAddressLegacy: New interfaces shouldn't use legacy types, and the
additional nesting would be nasty on the command line.
Example (only with required options):
--nbd-server addr.type=inet,addr.host=localhost,addr.port=10809

This adds a --blockdev option to the storage daemon that works the same
as the -blockdev option of the system emulator.
In order to be able to link with blockdev.o, we also need to change
stream.o from common-obj to block-obj, which is where all other block
jobs already are.
In contrast to the system emulator, qemu-storage-daemon options will be
processed in the order they are given. The user needs to take care to
refer to other objects only after defining them.

This adds a new binary qemu-storage-daemon that doesn't yet do more than
some typical initialisation for tools and parsing the basic command
options --version, --help and --trace.
Even though this doesn't add any options yet that create things (like
--object or --blockdev), already document that we're planning to process
them in the order they are given on the command line rather than trying
(and failing, like vl.c) to resolve dependencies between options
automatically.
