The current implementation of Interfaces is poorly designed. Each interface
that an object implements ends up being an object that's tracked by the
implementing object. There's all sorts of gymnastics to deal with casting
between these objects.
But an interface shouldn't be associated with an Object. Interfaces are global
to a class. This patch moves all Interface knowledge to ObjectClass eliminating
the relationship between Object and Interfaces.
Interfaces are now abstract (as they should be) but this is okay. Interfaces
essentially act as additional parents for the classes and are treated as such.
With this new implementation, we should fully support derived interfaces
including reimplementing an inherited interface.
PC: Rebased against qom-next merge Jun-2012.
PC: Removed replication of cast logic for interfaces, i.e. there is only
one cast function - object_dynamic_cast() (and object_dynamic_cast_assert())

CPU_COMMON_THREAD was only used for Windows, adding an hThread field
to CPU_COMMON.
Move the field into QOM CPUState and change its type to HANDLE,
which it is assigned from. This requires Windows headers, pulled in
through qemu-thread.h.

Right now the base Object class has a special NULL type. Change this so
that we will be able to add class_init and class_base_init callbacks.
To do this, remove some special casing of ObjectClass that is not really

Reintroduce CPUState as QOM object: It's abstract and derived directly
from TYPE_OBJECT for compatibility with the user emulators.
The identifier CPUState avoids conflicts between CPU() and the struct.

emulators.

Keep this isolated such that it's easy to remove. At some point, we need

This was done in a mostly automated fashion. I did it in three steps and then
rebased it into a single step which avoids repeatedly touching every file in
the tree.
The first step was a sed-based addition of the parent type to the subclass
registration functions.
The second step was another sed-based removal of subclass registration functions
while also adding virtual functions from the base class into a class_init
function as appropriate.
Finally, a python script was used to convert the DeviceInfo structures and
qdev_register_subclass functions to TypeInfo structures, class_init functions,
and type_register_static calls.
We are almost fully converted to QOM after this commit.
