The generated C enumeration types explicitly set the enumeration
constants to 0, 1, 2, ... That's exactly what you get when you don't
supply values.
Drop the explicit values. No change now, but it will avoid gaps in
the values when we later add support for 'if' conditions. Avoiding
such gaps will save us the trouble of changing the ENUM_lookup[]
tables to work without a sentinel.
We'll have to take care to ensure the headers required by the 'if'
conditions get always included before the generated QAPI code.
Fortunately, our convention to include "qemu/osdep.h" first in any .c
ensures that's the case for our CONFIG_FOO macros.

POSIX requires $PWD to be reliable, and we expect all
shells used by qemu scripts to be relatively close to
POSIX. Thus, it is smarter to avoid forking the pwd
executable for something that is already available in
the environment.
So replace it with the following:
sed -i 's/\(`pwd`\|\$(pwd)\)/$PWD/g' $(git grep -l pwd)
Then delete a pointless line assigning PWD to itself.

Python 3.4 introduced the inheritable attribute for FDs. At the same
time, it changed the default so that all FDs are not inheritable by
default, that only inheritable FDs are inherited to subprocesses, and
only if close_fds is explicitly set to False.
Adhere to this by setting close_fds to False when working with
subprocesses that may want to inherit FDs, and by trying to
set_inheritable() on FDs that we do want to bequeath to them.

Since byte strings are no longer the default in Python 3, we have to
explicitly use them where we need to, which is mostly when working with
structures. It also means that we need to open a file in binary mode
when we want to use structures.
On the other hand, we have to accomodate for the fact that some
functions (still) work with byte strings but we want to use unicode
strings (in Python 3 at least, and it does not matter in Python 2).
This includes base64 encoding, but it is most notable when working with
the subprocess module: Either we set universal_newlines to True so that
the default streams are opened in text mode (hence this parameter is
aliased as "text" as of 3.7), or, if that is not possible, we have to
decode the output to a normal string.

qerror.h contains leftovers from the now-defunct QError API.
There's only a handful of string macros left, and no one is supposed
to add anything else. The check-qerror.sh script was used to make sure
that all definitions on the qerror.c and qerror.h files were sorted
alphabetically. The former was removed three years ago, and the latter
is now in a different location, so the script doesn't even work (as
a matter of fact the alphabetical order was broken last time someone
added a macro -also in 2015- and no one seemed to notice).
There's no point in fixing this script so let's just remove it.
The rogue macro is also moved to its correct location.

We consciously chose in commit 1a9a507b to hide QAPI type names
from the introspection output on the wire, but added a command
line option -u to unmask the type name when doing a debug build.
The unmask option still remains useful to some other forms of
automated analysis, so it will not be removed; however, when it
is not in use, the generated .c file can be hard to read. At
the time when we first introduced masking, the generated file
consisted only of a monolithic C string, so there was no clean
way to inject any comments.
Later, in commit 7d0f982b, we switched the generation to output
a QLit object, in part to make it easier for future addition of
conditional compilation. In fact, commit d626b6c1 took advantage
of this by passing a tuple instead of a bare object for encoding
the output of conditionals. By extending that tuple, we can now
interject strategic comments.
For now, type name debug aid comments are only output once per
meta-type, rather than at all uses of the number used to encode
the type within the introspection data. But this is still a lot
more convenient than having to regenerate the file with the
unmask operation temporarily turned on - merely search the
generated file for '"NNN" =' to learn the corresponding source
name and associated definition of type NNN.
The generated qapi-introspect.c changes only with the addition
of comments, such as:

According to commit 047f7038f5, option --preconfig
[...] allows pausing QEMU in the new RUN_STATE_PRECONFIG state,
allowing the configuration of QEMU from QMP before the machine
jumps into board initialization code of machine_run_board_init()
The intent is to allow management to query machine state and
additionally configure it using previous query results within one
QEMU instance (i.e. eliminate the need to start QEMU twice, 1st to
query board specific parameters and 2nd for actual VM start using
query results for additional parameters).
The implementation is a bit of a hack: it splices in an additional
main loop before machine creation, in special runstate preconfig. New
command exit-preconfig exits that main loop. QEMU continues
initializing, creates the machine, and runs the good old main loop.
The replacement of the main loop is transparent to monitors.
Sadly, some commands expect initialization to be complete. Running
them in --preconfig's main loop violates their preconditions. Since
we don't really know which commands are safe, we use a whitelist.
This drags the concept of run state into the QMP core.
The whitelist is done as a command flag in the QAPI schema (commit
d6fe3d02e9). Drags the concept of run state further into the QAPI
language.
The command flag is exposed in query-qmp-schema (also commit
d6fe3d02e9). This makes it ABI.
I consider the whole thing an offensively ugly hack, but sometimes an
ugly hack is the best we can do to solve a problem people have.
The need described by the commit message quote above is genuine. The
proper solution would be a main loop that permits complete
configuration via QMP. This is out of reach, thus the hack.
However, even though the need is genuine, it isn't urgent: libvirt is
not going to use this anytime soon. Baking a hack into ABI before it
has any users is a bad idea.
This commit reverts the parts of commit d6fe3d02e9 that affect ABI
via query-qmp-schema. The commit did the following:
(1) Add command flag 'allow-preconfig' to the QAPI schema language
(2) Pass it to code generators
(3) Have the commands.py code generator pass it to the command
registry (so commit 047f7038f5 can use it as whitelist)
(4) Add 'allow-preconfig' to SchemaInfoCommand (neglecting to update
qapi-code-gen.txt section "Client JSON Protocol introspection")
(5) Set 'allow-preconfig': true for commands qmp_capabilities,
query-commands, query-command-line-options, query-status
Revert exactly (4), plus a bit of documentation added to
qemu-tech.info in commit 047f7038f5.
Shrinks query-qmp-schema's output from 126.5KiB to 121.8KiB for me.
