-blockdev and blockdev-add silently ignore empty objects and arrays in their argument. That's because qmp_blockdev_add() converts the argument to a flat QDict, and qdict_flatten() eats empty QDict and QList members. For instance, we ignore an empty BlockdevOptions member @cache. No real harm, as absent means the same as empty there. Thus, the flaw puts an artificial restriction on the QAPI schema: we can't have potentially empty objects and arrays within BlockdevOptions, except when they're optional and "empty" has the same meaning as "absent". Our QAPI schema satisfies this restriction (I checked), but it's a trap for the unwary, and a temptation to employ awkward workarounds for the wary. Let's get rid of it. Change qdict_flatten() and qdict_crumple() to treat empty dictionaries and lists exactly like scalars.
