[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v8 18/35] qapi: Drop unused error argument for list and implicit struct

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

No backend was setting an error when ending the visit of a list
or implicit struct.  Make the callers a bit easier to follow by
making this a part of the contract, and removing the errp
argument - callers can then unconditionally end an object as
part of cleanup without having to think about whether a second
error is dominated by a first, because there is no second error.

A later patch will then tackle the larger task of splitting
visit_end_struct(), which can indeed set an error.
