[PATCH v2 0/3] vl: QAPIfy -object

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

This is a replacement for -object QAPIfication that keeps QemuOpts
in order to not break some of the CLI parsing extensions that OptsVisitor
includes.  Since keyval is not used, support for directly passing
JSON syntax to the option must be added manually, which is what patch
3 does.  However, both the QemuOpts and the JSON paths go through
the new ObjectOptions interface, just with two different visitors,
so we can reuse all the new type-safe code that Kevin has added.

Patch 1 is a patch that I already had lying around, which I included
to be able to remove user_creatable_add_opts completely in patch 2.
