This can be replaced by object_new_with_props_from_qdict, which does
functionally the same job, but the caller does not own the returned
reference, instead the parent object owns it.
In one case we can use object_new_with_props_from_qdict_owned instead
since the object is not intended to have any parent.

object_new_with_propv allowed id/parent to be optional, in which case
the caller was expected to own the returned object. Unfortunately a
trailing object_unref() meant that the returned object was already
freed.
It is confusing to have a single method with two different ownership
scenarios for the returned object.
Make id/parent mandatory in object_new_with_propv once more, and add
a new object_new_with_propv_parentless that does not accept id/parent
at all and lets the caller own the returned reference.
The helper method has abstracted the way properties are represented
and set in order to facilitate the subsequent commit.
Unit tests are added to address the root cause that allowed the bug
to slip through in commit 6134d752.

object_new_with_props can't put 'errp' last due to the use of

Add a new function object_resolve_and_typecheck(), whose purpose is
to look up the object at a given QOM path, confirm that it is the
expected type, and return it. This is similar to the existing
object_resolve_path_type(), but it insists on a non-ambiguous path.
We were already using this functionality internally to object.c as
part of the object_resolve_link() function, so this patch implements
the new function by pulling the link-property specific parts out of
the more generic resolve-and-typecheck part.
The motivation for this function is that we want to allow devices to
provide an array of link properties; for that we will need to be able
to provide the expected type of the linked object in a different way
to the single-item link properties.

Currently, the instance_post_init calls are performed from the leaf
class and all the way up to Object. This is incorrect because the
leaf class cannot observe property values applied by the superclasses;
for example, a compat property will be set on a device *after*
the class's post_init callback has run.
In particular this makes it impossible for implementations of
accel_cpu_instance_init() to operate based on the actual values of
the properties, though it seems that cxl_dsp_instance_post_init and
rp_instance_post_init might have similar issues.
Follow instead the same order as instance_init, starting with Object
and running the child class's instance_post_init after the parent.

At present, type_register() and type_register_static() are identical,
although their documentation expects the *_static variant to accept
the Typeinfo with the strings that have the static lifetime.
However, the code implementation doesn't have any check or guarantee for
static lifetime. In fact, this is unnecessary because type_new()
duplicates all strings, thereby taking ownership of them.
Therefore, type_register() and type_register_static() are redundant, so
one of them should be removed.
Since the changes required to remove type_register() were smaller,
type_register() was replaced with type_register_static() throughout the
code base. Drop its definition, and delete the requirement about string
lifetime from the documentation.

We have an OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED macro, plus several variations
on it, which emits the boilerplate for the TypeInfo and ensures it is
registered with the type system. However, all the existing macros
insist that the type being defined has its own FooClass struct, so
they aren't useful for the common case of a simple leaf class which
doesn't have any new methods or any other need for its own class
struct (that is, for the kind of type that OBJECT_DECLARE_SIMPLE_TYPE
declares).
Pull the actual implementation of OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED out
into a new DO_OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED which parameterizes the
value we use for the class_size field. This lets us add a new
OBJECT_DEFINE_SIMPLE_TYPE which does the same job as the various
existing OBJECT_DEFINE_*_TYPE_* family macros for this kind of simple
type, and the variant OBJECT_DEFINE_SIMPLE_TYPE_WITH_INTERFACES for
when the type will implement some interfaces.

Recent commit 6952026120 "monitor: Tidy up find_device_state()"
assumed the function's argument is "the device's ID or QOM path" (as
documented for device_del). It's actually either an absolute QOM
path, or a QOM path relative to /machine/peripheral/. Such a relative
path is a device ID when it doesn't contain a slash. When it does,
the function now always fails. Broke iotest 200, which uses relative
path "vda/virtio-backend".
It fails because object_resolve_path_component() resolves just one
component, not a relative path.
The obvious function to resolve relative paths is
object_resolve_path(). It picks a parent automatically. Too much
magic, we want to specify the parent. Create new
object_resolve_path_at() for that, and use it in find_device_state().

Emulators are currently using OptsVisitor (via user_creatable_add_opts)
to parse the -object command line option. This has one extra feature,
compared to keyval, which is automatic conversion of integers to lists
as well as support for lists as repeated options:
-object memory-backend-ram,id=pc.ram,size=1048576000,host-nodes=0,policy=bind
So we cannot replace OptsVisitor with keyval right now. Still, this
patch moves the user_creatable_add_opts logic to vl.c since it is
not needed anywhere else, and makes it go through user_creatable_add_qapi.
In order to minimize code changes, the predicate still takes a string.
This can be changed later to use the ObjectType QAPI enum directly.

This converts object-add from 'gen': false to the ObjectOptions QAPI
type. As an immediate benefit, clients can now use QAPI schema
introspection for user creatable QOM objects.
It is also the first step towards making the QAPI schema the only
external interface for the creation of user creatable objects. Once all
other places (HMP and command lines of the system emulator and all
tools) go through QAPI, too, some object implementations can be
simplified because some checks (e.g. that mandatory options are set) are
already performed by QAPI, and in another step, QOM boilerplate code
could be generated from the schema.
