Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef. Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere. Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h. That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.
Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h. Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now. Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.
Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly. Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h. Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.
This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all
of them" to less than a third. Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little. More work is needed for that one.

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

A number of I/O operations need to be performed asynchronously
to avoid blocking the main loop. The caller of such APIs need
to provide a callback to be invoked on completion/error and
need access to the error, if any. The small QIOTask provides
a simple framework for dealing with such probes. The API
docs inline provide an outline of how this is to be used.
Some functions don't have the ability to run asynchronously
(eg getaddrinfo always blocks), so to facilitate their use,
the task class provides a mechanism to run a blocking
function in a thread, while triggering the completion
callback in the main event loop thread. This easily allows
any synchronous function to be made asynchronous, albeit
at the cost of spawning a thread.
In this series, the QIOTask class will be used for things like
the TLS handshake, the websockets handshake and TCP connect()
progress.
The concept of QIOTask is inspired by the GAsyncResult
interface / GTask class in the GIO libraries. The min
version requirements on glib don't allow those to be
used from QEMU, so QIOTask provides a facsimilie which
can be easily switched to GTask in the future if the
min version is increased.
