The first step in porting -net to QemuOpts. We do not include parameter
descriptions in the QemuOptsList because we use the first parameter to
choose which descriptions validate against.

Switch RTC emulations to the new host_clock instead of vm_clock by
default. This has the advantage that the emulated RTC will follow
automatically the host time while it might be tuned via NTP. vm_clock
can still be selected by passing '-rtc clock=vm' on the command line.
Note that some RTC emulations (at least M48T59) already use the host
time unconditionally while others (namely MC146818) do not. This patch
introduces the required infrastructure for selecting the base clock but
only converts MC146818 for now.

Replace:
if (-1 == foo())
with:
if (foo() == -1)
While this coding style is not in direct contravention of our currently
ratified CODING_STYLE treaty, it could be argued that the Article 3 of
the European Convention on Human Rights (prohibiting torture and "inhuman
or degrading treatment") reads on the matter.

Problem: Our file sys-queue.h is a copy of the BSD file, but there are
some additions and it's not entirely compatible. Because of that, there have
been conflicts with system headers on BSD systems. Some hacks have been
introduced in the commits 15cc923584,
f40d753718,
96555a96d7 and
3990d09adf but the fixes were fragile.
Solution: Avoid the conflict entirely by renaming the functions and the
file. Revert the previous hacks.

Lets put -chardev into use now. With this patch applied chardev:name is
accepted as chardev specification everywhere, i.e. now you can:
-chardev stdio,id=ttyS0
-serial chardev:ttyS0
which does the same as '-serial stdio".
Muxing can be done this way:
-chardev stdio,id=mux,mux=on
-serial chardev:mux
-monitor chardev:mux
You can mux more than two streams.

While being at it: create a new inet_dgram_opts() function for udp setup,
so udp can handle IPv6 now.

new cmd line syntax:
unix socket:

tcp socket:
-chardev socket,id=name,host=hostaddr|ipaddr,port=portnr
server and nowait options work as usual. Alternatively you can use
server=[on|off] + wait=[on|off] syntax.

start switching chardevs to QemuOpts. This patch adds the
infrastructure and converts the null device.
The patch brings two new functions:
qemu_chr_open_opts()
same as qemu_chr_open(), but uses QemuOpts instead of a
option char string.
qemu_chr_parse_compat()
accepts a traditional chardev option string, returns the
corresponding QemuOpts instance, to handle backward
compatibility.
The patch also adds a new -chardev switch which can be used to create
named+unconnected chardevs, like this:
-chardev null,id=test
This uses the new qemu_chr_open_opts. Thus with this patch alone only
the null device works. The other devices will follow ...

Now that do have a nicer interface to work against we can add Linux native
AIO support. It's an extremly thing layer just setting up an iocb for
the io_submit system call in the submission path, and registering an
eventfd with the qemu poll handler to do complete the iocbs directly
from there.
This started out based on Anthony's earlier AIO patch, but after
estimated 42,000 rewrites and just as many build system changes
there's not much left of it.
To enable native kernel aio use the aio=native sub-command on the
drive command line. I have also added an option to qemu-io to
test the aio support without needing a guest.

One use case will be file for drives (no filename quoting issues), i.e.
-drive id=test,if=virtio
-set drive.test.file=/vmdisk/test-virtio.img
It will work for any other option (assuming handled by QemuOpts) though.
Except for id= for obvious reasons ;).
