qapi-gen.py crashes when it can't open the main schema file, and when
it can't read from any schema file. Lazy.
Change QAPISchema.__init__() to take a file name instead of a file
object. Move the open code from _include() to __init__(), so it's
used for the main schema file, too.
Move the read into the try for good measure, and rephrase the error
message.
Reporting open or read failure for the main schema file needs a
QAPISourceInfo representing "no source". Make QAPISourceInfo cope
with fname=None.

QAPISchemaMember.check_clash() checks for member names that map to the
same c_name(). Takes care of rejecting duplicate names.
It also checks a naming rule: no uppercase in member names. That's a
rather odd place to do it. Enforcing naming rules is
check_name_str()'s job.
qapi-code-gen.txt specifies the name case rule applies to the name as
it appears in the schema. check_clash() checks c_name(name) instead.
No difference, as c_name() leaves alone case, but unclean.
Move the name case check into check_name_str(), less the c_name().
New argument @permit_upper suppresses it. Pass permit_upper=True for
definitions (which are not members), and when the member's owner is
whitelisted with pragma name-case-whitelist.
Bonus: name-case-whitelist now applies to a union's inline base, too.

Entity checking goes back to commit ac88219a6c "qapi: New QAPISchema
intermediate representation", v2.5.0. It's designed to work as
follows: QAPISchema.check() calls .check() for all the schema's
entities. An entity's .check() recurses into another entity's
.check() only if the C struct generated for the former contains the C
struct generated for the latter (pointers don't count). This is used
to detect "object contains itself".
There are two instances of this:
* An object's C struct contains its base's C struct
QAPISchemaObjectType.check() calls self.base.check()
* An object's C struct contains its variants' C structs
QAPISchemaObjectTypeVariants().check calls v.type.check(). Since
commit b807a1e1e3 "qapi: Check for QAPI collisions involving variant
members", v2.6.0.
Thus, only object types can participate in recursion.
QAPISchemaObjectType.check() is made for that: it checks @self when
called the first time, recursing into base and variants, it reports an
"contains itself" error when this recursion reaches an object being
checked, and does nothing it reaches an object that has been checked
already.
The other .check() may safely assume they get called exactly once.
Sadly, this design has since eroded:
* QAPISchemaCommand.check() and QAPISchemaEvent.check() call
.args_type.check(). Since commit c818408e44 "qapi: Implement boxed
types for commands/events", v2.7.0. Harmless, since args_type can
only be an object type.
* QAPISchemaEntity.check() calls ._ifcond.check() when inheriting the
condition from another type. Since commit 4fca21c1b0 qapi: leave
the ifcond attribute undefined until check(), v3.0.0. This makes
simple union wrapper types recurse into the wrapped type (nothing
else uses this condition inheritance). The .check() of types used
as simple union branch type get called multiple times.
* QAPISchemaObjectType.check() calls its super type's .check()
*before* the conditional handling multiple calls. Also since commit
4fca21c1b0. QAPISchemaObjectType.check()'s guard against multiple
checking doesn't protect QAPISchemaEntity.check().
* QAPISchemaArrayType.check() calls .element_type.check(). Also since
commit 4fca21c1b0. The .check() of types used as array element
types get called multiple times.
Commit 56a4689582 "qapi: Fix array first used in a different module"
(v4.0.0) added more code relying on this .element_type.check().
The absence of explosions suggests the .check() involved happen to be
effectively idempotent.
Fix the unwanted recursion anyway:
* QAPISchemaCommand.check() and QAPISchemaEvent.check() calling
.args_type.check() is unnecessary. Delete the calls.
* Fix QAPISchemaObjectType.check() to call its super type's .check()
after the conditional handling multiple calls.
* A QAPISchemaEntity's .ifcond becomes valid at .check(). This is due
to arrays and simple unions.
Most types get ifcond and info passed to their constructor.
Array types don't: they get it from their element type, which
becomes known only in .element_type.check().
The implicit wrapper object types for simple union branches don't:
they get it from the wrapped type, which might be an array.
Ditch the idea to set .ifcond in .check(). Instead, turn it into a
property and compute it on demand. Safe because it's only used
after the schema has been checked.
Most types simply return the ifcond passed to their constructor.
Array types forward to their .element_type instead, and the wrapper
types forward to the wrapped type.
* A QAPISchemaEntity's .module becomes valid at .check(). This is
because computing it needs info and schema.fname, and because array
types get it from their element type instead.
Make it a property just like .ifcond.
Additionally, have QAPISchemaEntity.check() assert it gets called at
most once, so the design invariant will stick this time. Neglecting
that was entirely my fault.

Test features-if-invalid exposes this bug: "'if': null" is

We added null to the schema language to "allow [...] an explicit
default value" (commit e53188ada5 "qapi: Allow true, false and null in

as generic invalid value in tests/.

[Commit message typo fixed]
A union or alternate without branches makes no sense and doesn't work:
it can't be instantiated. A union or alternate with just one branch
works, but is degenerate. We accept the former, but reject the
latter. Weird. docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.txt doesn't mention the
difference. It claims an alternate definition is "is similar to a
simple union type".
Permit degenerate alternates to make them consistent with unions.

We reject empty types with 'boxed': true. We don't really need that
to work, but making it work is actually simpler than rejecting it, so
do that.

Since the previous commit restricted strings to printable ASCII,
\uXXXX's only use is obfuscation. Drop it.
This leaves \\, \/, \', and \". Since QAPI schema strings are all
names, and names are restricted to ASCII letters, digits, hyphen, and
underscore, none of them is useful.
The latter three have no test coverage. Drop them.
Keep \\ to avoid (more) gratuitous incompatibility with JSON.

RFC 8259 on string contents:
All Unicode characters may be placed within the quotation marks,
except for the characters that MUST be escaped: quotation mark,
reverse solidus, and the control characters (U+0000 through
U+001F).
The QAPI schema parser accepts both less and more than JSON: it
accepts only ASCII with \u (less), and accepts control characters
other than LF (new line) unescaped. How it treats unescaped non-ASCII
input differs between Python 2 and Python 3.
Make it accept strictly less: require printable ASCII. Drop support
for \b, \f, \n, \r, \t.

Commands and events can define their argument type inline (default) or
by referring to another type ('boxed': true, since commit c818408e44
"qapi: Implement boxed types for commands/events", v2.7.0). The
unboxed inline definition is an (anonymous) struct type. The boxed
type may be a struct, union, or alternate type.
The latter is problematic: docs/interop/qemu-spec.txt requires the
value of the 'data' key to be a json-object, but any non-degenerate
alternate type has at least one branch that isn't.
Fortunately, we haven't made use of alternates in this context outside
tests/. Drop support for them.
QAPISchemaAlternateType.is_empty() is now unused. Drop it, too.

check_type() uses @allow_optional only when @value is a dictionary and
@allow_dict is True. All callers that pass allow_dict=True also pass
allow_optional=True.
Therefore, @allow_optional is always True when check_type() uses it.
Drop the redundant parameter.

QAPIDoc uses a state machine to for processing of documentation lines.
Its state is encoded as an enum QAPIDoc._state (well, as enum-like
class actually, thanks to our infatuation with Python 2).
All we ever do with the state is calling the state's function to
process a line of documentation. The enum values effectively serve as
handles for the functions.
Eliminate the rather wordy indirection: store the function to call in
QAPIDoc._append_line. Update and improve comments.
