The SocketAddress 'fd' kind accepts the name of a file descriptor passed to the monitor with the 'getfd' command. This makes it impossible to use the 'fd' kind in cases where a monitor is not available. This can apply in handling command line argv at startup, or simply if internal code wants to use SocketAddress and pass a numeric FD it has acquired from elsewhere. Fortunately the 'getfd' command mandated that the FD names must not start with a leading digit. We can thus safely extend semantics of the SocketAddress 'fd' kind, to allow a purely numeric name to reference an file descriptor that QEMU already has open. There will be restrictions on when each kind can be used. In codepaths where we are handling a monitor command (ie cur_mon != NULL), we will only support use of named file descriptors as before. Use of FD numbers is still not permitted for monitor commands. In codepaths where we are not handling a monitor command (ie cur_mon == NULL), we will not support named file descriptors. Instead we can reference FD numers explicitly. This allows the app spawning QEMU to intentionally "leak" a pre-opened socket to QEMU and reference that in a SocketAddress definition, or for code inside QEMU to pass pre-opened FDs around.
