There should be no need to look up nor enumerate the interface "types",
whose "classes" are really just vtables. Just create the types and
add them to the interface list of the parent type.
Interfaces not registering their type anymore means that accessing
superclass::interface by type name will fail when initializing
subclass::interface. Thus, we need to pre-initialize the subclass's
parent_type field before calling type_initialize. Apart from this, the
interface "types" should never be used and thus it is harmless to leave
them out of the hashtable.
Further, the interface types had a bug with interfaces that are
inherited from a superclass: The implementation type name was wrong
(for example it was subclass::superclass::interface rather than
just subclass::interface). This patch fixes this as well.

The object-cast and class-cast caches cannot be shared because class
caching is conditional on the target type not being an interface and
object caching is unconditional. Leads to a bug when a class cast
to an interface follows an object cast to the same interface type:
FooObject = FOO(obj);
FooClass = FOO_GET_CLASS(obj);
Where TYPE_FOO is an interface. The first (object) cast will be
successful and cache the casting result (i.e. TYPE_FOO will be cached).
The second (class) cast will then check the shared cast cache
and register a hit. The issue is, when a class cast hits in the cache
it just returns a pointer cast of the input class (i.e. the concrete
class).
When casting to an interface, the cast itself must return the
interface class, not the concrete class. The implementation of class
cast caching already ensures that the returned cast result is only
a pointer cast before caching. The object cast logic however does
not have this check.
Resolve by just splitting the object and class caches.

The QOM framework will attempt the recreate a classes interface list from
scratch for each class. This means that a child class should zero out the
list of interfaces when cloned from the parent class.
Currently the list is memcpy()d from the parent to the child. As the interface
list is just a pointer to a list, this means the parent and child will share
the same list of interfaces. When the child inits, it will append its own
interfaces to the parents list. This is incorrect as the parent should not pick
up its childs interfaces.
This actually causes an infinite loop at class init time, as the child will
iterate through the parent interface list adding each itf to its own list(in
type_initialize()). As the list is (erroneously) shared, the new interface
instances for the child are appended to the parent, and the iterator never hits
the tail and loops forever.

object_deinit is only called when the reference count goes to zero,

Because we know the reference count is zero, the object_unparent
call in object_deinit is useless.
Instead, we need to disconnect the object from its parent just
before we remove the last reference apart from the parent's. This

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.

As a useful byproduct, this fixes a problem with links of interface
type. When a link property's type is an interface, the code expects

Now we have the following behavior:
1) object_new() returns an object with ref = 1
2) object_initialize() does not increase the reference count (ref may be 0).
3) object_deref() will finalize the object when ref = 0. it does not free the
memory associated with the object.
4) both link and child properties correctly set the reference count.
The expected usage is the following:
1) child devices should generally be created via object_initialize() using
memory from the parent device. Adding the object as a child property will
take ownership of the object and tie the child's life cycle to the parent.
2) If a child device is created via qdev_create() or some other form of
object_new(), there must be an object_delete() call in the parent device's
finalize function.

Links had limited utility before as they only allowed a concrete type to be
specified. Now we can support abstract types and interfaces which means it's
now possible to have a link<PCIDevice>.

This is mostly code movement although not entirely. This makes properties part
of the Object base class which means that we can now start using Object in a
meaningful way outside of qdev.

This class provides the main building block for QEMU Object Model and is
extensively documented in the header file. It is largely inspired by GObject.

v1 -> v2
- remove printf() in type registration
- fix typo in comment (Paolo)

- move object into a new directory and move header into include/qemu/
- don't make object.h depend on qemu-common.h
- remove Type and replace it with TypeImpl * (Paolo)
- use hash table to store types (Paolo)
- aggressively cache parent type (Paolo)
- make a type_register and use it with interfaces (Paolo)
- fix interface cast comment (Paolo)
- add a few more functions required in later series
