Move all the frontend struct and methods to a seperate unit. This avoids
accidentally mixing backend and frontend calls, and helps with readabilty.
Make qemu_chr_replay() a macro shared by both char and char-fe.
Export qemu_chr_write(), and use a macro for qemu_chr_write_all()
(nb: yes, CharBackend is for char frontend :)

So they are all in one place. The following patch will move serial &
parallel declarations to the respective headers.

No need to keep explicit_fe_open around if it affects only a
qemu_chr_fe_set_handlers(). Use an additional argument instead.

This also switches from qemu_chr_add_handlers() to
qemu_chr_fe_set_handlers(). Note that qemu_chr_fe_set_handlers() now
takes the focus when fe_open (qemu_chr_add_handlers() did take the
focus)

Store the property in a CharBackend instead of CharDriverState*. This
also replace systematically chr by chr.chr to access the
CharDriverState*. The following patches will replace it with calls to
qemu_chr_fe CharBackend functions.

The qemu_chr_fe_write method will return -1 on EAGAIN if the
chardev backend write would block. Almost no callers of the
qemu_chr_fe_write() method check the return value, instead
blindly assuming data was successfully sent. In most cases
this will lead to silent data loss on interactive consoles,
but in some cases (eg RNG EGD) it'll just cause corruption
of the protocol being spoken.
We unfortunately can't fix the virtio-console code, due to
a bug in the Linux guest drivers, which would cause the
entire Linux kernel to hang if we delay processing of the
incoming data in any way. Fixing this requires first fixing
the guest driver to not hold spinlocks while writing to the
hvc device backend.

Clean up includes so that osdep.h is included first and headers
which it implies are not included manually.
