Eric Blake cc9f60d4a2 qobject: Protect against use-after-free in qobject_decref()
Adding an assertion to qobject_decref() will ensure that a
programming error causing use-after-free will result in
immediate failure (provided no other thread has started
using the memory) instead of silently attempting to wrap
refcnt around and leaving the problem to potentially bite
later at a harder point to diagnose.

Markus Armbruster c7c462123c qobject: Drop QObject_HEAD
QObject_HEAD is a macro expanding into the common part of structs that
are sub-types of QObject.  It's always been just QObject base, and
unlikely to change.  Drop the macro, because the code is clearer with
out it.

Markus Armbruster 4629ed1e98 qerror: Finally unused, clean up
Remove it except for two things in qerror.h:

* Two #include to be cleaned up separately to avoid cluttering this
  patch.

* The QERR_ macros.  Mark as obsolete.

Markus Armbruster 481b002cc8 qobject: Add a special null QObject
I'm going to fix the JSON parser to recognize null.  The obvious
representation of JSON null as (QObject *)NULL doesn't work, because
the parser already uses it as an error value.  Perhaps we should
change it to free NULL for null, but that's more than I can do right
now.  Create a special null QObject instead.

The existing QDict, QList, and QString all represent something that
is a pointer in C and could therefore be associated with NULL.  But
right now, all three of these sub-types are always non-null once
created, so the new null sentinel object is intentionally unrelated
to them.

Markus Armbruster a7c3181628 qobject: Clean up around qtype_code
QTYPE_NONE is a sentinel value.  No QObject has this type code.
Document it properly.

Fix dump_qobject() to abort() on QTYPE_NONE, just like for any other
invalid type code.

Fix to_json() to abort() on all invalid type codes, not just
QTYPE_MAX.

Clean up Property member qtype's type: it's a qtype_code.

Kevin Wolf 69dd62dfd6 qapi: Anonymous unions
The discriminator for anonymous unions is the data type. This allows to
have a union type that allows both of these:

    { 'file': 'my_existing_block_device_id' }
    { 'file': { 'filename': '/tmp/mydisk.qcow2', 'read-only': true } }

Unions like this are specified in the schema with an empty dict as
discriminator. For this example you could take:

    { 'union': 'BlockRef',
      'discriminator': {},
      'data': { 'definition': 'BlockOptions',
                'reference': 'str' } }
    { 'type': 'ExampleObject',
      'data: { 'file': 'BlockRef' } }
