Guest writes to vNVDIMM labels are intercepted and performed on the
backend by QEMU. When the backend is a real persistent memort, QEMU
needs to take proper operations to ensure its write persistence on the
persistent memory. Otherwise, a host power failure may result in the
loss of guest label configurations.

We might get a call to get_memory_region() before the device has been
realized. We should return a consistent value, as the return value
will e.g. later on be used in the pre_plug handler.
To avoid duplicating too much code, factor the initialization and checks
out into a helper function.

This way we can easily check if the region has already been inititalized
without having to rely on the size of an uninitialized region being 0.
Free the region in nvdimm_finalize() and not in unrealize() as we will
allow to create the region before realization in following patches.

In my "build everything" tree, a change to the types in
qapi-schema.json triggers a recompile of about 4800 out of 5100
objects.
The previous commit split up qmp-commands.h, qmp-event.h, qmp-visit.h,
qapi-types.h. Each of these headers still includes all its shards.
Reduce compile time by including just the shards we actually need.
To illustrate the benefits: adding a type to qapi/migration.json now
recompiles some 2300 instead of 4800 objects. The next commit will
improve it further.

[eblake: rebase to master]
Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
Currently the only vNVDIMM backend can guarantee the guest write
persistence is device DAX on Linux, because no host-side kernel cache
is involved in the guest access to it. The approach to detect whether
the backend is device DAX needs to access sysfs, which may not work
with SELinux.
Instead, we add the 'unarmed' option to device 'nvdimm', so that users
or management utils, which have enough knowledge about the backend,
can control the unarmed flag in guest ACPI NFIT via this option. The
guest Linux NVDIMM driver, for example, will mark the corresponding
vNVDIMM device read-only if the unarmed flag in guest NFIT is set.
The default value of 'unarmed' option is 'off' in order to keep the
backwards compatibility.

QEMU currently crashes when trying to use a 'pc-dimm' on the pseries
machine without specifying its 'memdev' property. This happens because
pc_dimm_get_memory_region() does not check whether the 'memdev' property
has properly been set by the user. Looking closer at this function, it's
also obvious that it is using &error_abort to call another function - and
this is bad in a function that is used in the hot-plugging calling chain
since this can also cause QEMU to exit unexpectedly.
So let's fix these issues in a proper way now: Add a "Error **errp"
parameter to pc_dimm_get_memory_region() which we use in case the 'memdev'
property has not been set by the user, and which we can use instead of
the &error_abort, and change the callers of get_memory_region() to make
use of this "errp" parameter for proper error checking.
