b35203b227 qmp-shell: fix nested json regression
Commit fcfab7541 ("qmp-shell: learn to send commands with quoted
arguments") introduces the usage of Python 'shlex' to handle quoted
arguments, but it accidentally broke generation of nested JSON
structs.

shlex drops quotes, which breaks parsing of the nested struct.

cmd='blockdev-create job-id="job0 foo" options={"driver":"qcow2","size":16384,"file":{"driver":"file","filename":"foo.qcow2"}}'

shlex.split(cmd)
['blockdev-create',
 'job-id=job0 foo',
 'options={driver:qcow2,size:16384,file:{driver:file,filename:foo.qcow2}}']

Replace with a regexp to split while respecting quoted strings and preserving quotes:

re.findall(r'''(?:[^\s"']|"(?:\\.|[^"])*"|'(?:\\.|[^'])*')+''', cmd)
['blockdev-create',
 'job-id="job0 foo"',
 'options={"driver":"qcow2","size":16384,"file":{"driver":"file","filename":"foo.qcow2"}}']

This is a simple move of Python code that wraps common QEMU
functionality, and are used by a number of different tests
and scripts.

By treating that code as a real Python module, we can more easily:
 * reuse code
 * have a proper place for the module's own unittests
 * apply a more consistent style
 * generate documentation

  Error while parsing command line: Expected a key=value pair, got 'tls-hostname='
command format: <command-name>  [arg-name1=arg1] ... [arg-nameN=argN]

This is caused by checking the wrong condition after splitting
the parameter on '='. The "partition" method will return "" for
the separator field, if the seperator was not present, so that
is the correct thing to check for malformed syntax.

e55250c6cb qmp-shell: fix pretty printing of JSON responses
Pretty printing of JSON responses is important to be able to understand
large responses from query commands in particular. Unfortunately this
was broken during the addition of the verbose flag in

  commit 1ceca07e48
  Author: John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com>
  Date:   Wed Apr 29 15:14:04 2015 -0400

    scripts: qmp-shell: Add verbose flag

This is because that change turned the python data structure into a
formatted JSON string before the pretty print was given it. So we're
just pretty printing a string, which is a no-op.

The original pretty printer would output python objects.

(QEMU) query-chardev
{   u'return': [   {   u'filename': u'vc',
                       u'frontend-open': False,
                       u'label': u'parallel0'},
                   {   u'filename': u'vc',
                       u'frontend-open': True,
                       u'label': u'serial0'},
                   {   u'filename': u'unix:/tmp/qemp,server',
                       u'frontend-open': True,
                       u'label': u'compat_monitor0'}]}

This fixes the problem by switching to outputting pretty formatted JSON
text instead. This has the added benefit that the pretty printed output
is now valid JSON text. Due to the way the verbose flag was handled, the
pretty printing now applies to the command sent, as well as its response:

(QEMU) query-chardev
{
    "execute": "query-chardev",
    "arguments": {}
}
{
    "return": [
        {
            "frontend-open": false,
            "label": "parallel0",
            "filename": "vc"
        },
        {
            "frontend-open": true,
            "label": "serial0",
            "filename": "vc"
        },
        {
            "frontend-open": true,
            "label": "compat_monitor0",
            "filename": "unix:/tmp/qmp,server"
        }
    ]

1ceca07e48 scripts: qmp-shell: Add verbose flag
Add a verbose flag that shows the QMP command that was
constructed, to allow for later copy/pasting, reference,
debugging, etc.

The QMP is converted from a Python literal to JSON first,
to ensure that it is viable input to the actual QMP parser.

As a side-effect, this JSON output will helpfully show all
the necessary conversions that were performed on the input,
illustrating that "True" was transformed back into "true",
literal values are now escaped with "" instead of '', and so on.

30bd6815ef scripts: qmp-shell: add transaction subshell
Add a special processing mode to craft transactions.

By entering "transaction(" the shell will enter a special
mode where each subsequent command will be saved as a transaction
instead of executed as an individual command.

The transaction can be submitted by entering ")" on a line by itself.

Examples:

Separate lines:

(QEMU) transaction(
TRANS> block-dirty-bitmap-add node=drive0 name=bitmap1
TRANS> block-dirty-bitmap-clear node=drive0 name=bitmap0
TRANS> )

With a transaction action included on the first line:

(QEMU) transaction( block-dirty-bitmap-add node=drive0 name=bitmap2
TRANS> block-dirty-bitmap-add node=drive0 name=bitmap3
TRANS> )

As a one-liner, with just one transaction action:

(QEMU) transaction( block-dirty-bitmap-add node=drive0 name=bitmap0 )

As a side-effect of this patch, blank lines are now parsed as no-ops,
regardless of which shell mode you are in.

6092c3ecc4 scripts: qmp-shell: Expand support for QMP expressions
This includes support for [] expressions, single-quotes in
QMP expressions (which is not strictly a part of JSON), and
the ability to use "True", "False" and "None" literals instead
of JSON's equivalent true, false, and null literals.

qmp-shell currently allows you to describe values as
JSON expressions:
key={"key":{"key2":"val"}}

But it does not currently support arrays, which are needed
for serializing and deserializing transactions:
key=[{"type":"drive-backup","data":{...}}]

qmp-shell also only currently accepts doubly quoted strings
as-per JSON spec, but QMP allows single quotes.

Lastly, python allows you to utilize "True" or "False" as
boolean literals, but JSON expects "true" or "false". Expand
qmp-shell to allow the user to type either, converting to the
correct type.

As a consequence of the above, the key=val parsing is also improved
to give better error messages if a key=val token is not provided.

CAVEAT: The parser is still extremely rudimentary and does not
expect to find spaces in {} nor [] expressions. This patch does
not improve this functionality.

a7430a0bad scripts: qmp-shell: refactor helpers
Refactor the qmp-shell command line processing function
into two components. This will be used to allow sub-expressions,
which will assist us in adding transactional support to qmp-shell.

cd159d0954 QMP: Allow dot separated dict path arguments in qmp-shell
As another convenience to allow using commands that expect a dict as
argument, this patch adds support for foo.bar=value syntax, similar to
command line argument style:

  (QEMU) blockdev-add options.driver=file options.id=drive1 options.filename=...

ff9ec34de8 QMP: allow JSON dict arguments in qmp-shell
qmp-shell hides the QMP wire protocol JSON encoding from the user.  Most
of the time this is helpful and makes the command-line human-friendly.

Some QMP commands take a dict as an argument.  In order to express this
we need to revert back to JSON notation.

This patch allows JSON dict arguments in qmp-shell so commands like
blockdev-add and nbd-server-start can be invoked:

  (QEMU) blockdev-add options={"driver":"file","id":"drive1",...}

Note that spaces are not allowed since str.split() is used to break up
the command-line arguments first.
