The Big QEMU Lock (BQL) has many names and they are confusing. The
actual QemuMutex variable is called qemu_global_mutex but it's commonly
referred to as the BQL in discussions and some code comments. The
locking APIs, however, are called qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() and
qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread().
The "iothread" name is historic and comes from when the main thread was
split into into KVM vcpu threads and the "iothread" (now called the main
loop thread). I have contributed to the confusion myself by introducing
a separate --object iothread, a separate concept unrelated to the BQL.
The "iothread" name is no longer appropriate for the BQL. Rename the
locking APIs to:
- void bql_lock(void)
- void bql_unlock(void)
- bool bql_locked(void)
There are more APIs with "iothread" in their names. Subsequent patches
will rename them. There are also comments and documentation that will be
updated in later patches.

The header target/arm/kvm-consts.h checks CONFIG_KVM which is marked as
poisoned in common code, so the files that include this header have to
be added to specific_ss and recompiled for each, qemu-system-arm and
qemu-system-aarch64. However, since the kvm headers are only optionally
used in kvm-constants.h for some sanity checks, we can additionally
check the NEED_CPU_H macro first to avoid the poisoned CONFIG_KVM macro,
so kvm-constants.h can also be used from "common" files (without the
sanity checks - which should be OK since they are still done from other
target-specific files instead). This way, and by adjusting some other
include statements in the related files here and there, we can move some
files from specific_ss into softmmu_ss, so that they only need to be
compiled once during the build process.

g_new(T, n) is neater than g_malloc(sizeof(T) * n). It's also safer,
for two reasons. One, it catches multiplication overflowing size_t.
Two, it returns T * rather than void *, which lets the compiler catch
more type errors.
This commit only touches allocations with size arguments of the form
sizeof(T).

[Rebased onto merge commit 95a9457fd44; missed instances of qom/cpu.h
in comments replaced]
In my "build everything" tree, changing sysemu/sysemu.h triggers a
recompile of some 5400 out of 6600 objects (not counting tests and
objects that don't depend on qemu/osdep.h).
Almost a third of its inclusions are actually superfluous. Delete
them. Downgrade two more to qapi/qapi-types-run-state.h, and move one
from char/serial.h to char/serial.c.
hw/semihosting/config.c, monitor/monitor.c, qdev-monitor.c, and
stubs/semihost.c define variables declared in sysemu/sysemu.h without
including it. The compiler is cool with that, but include it anyway.
This doesn't reduce actual use much, as it's still included into
widely included headers. The next commit will tackle that.

Commit 4881658a4b introduced a call to arm_get_cpu_by_id(),
and Coverity noticed that we weren't checking that it didn't
return NULL (CID 1371652).
Normally this won't happen (because all 4 CPUs are expected
to exist), but it's possible the user requested fewer CPUs
on the command line. Handle this possibility by silently
doing nothing, which is the same behaviour as before commit
4881658a4b and also how we handle the other CPU operations
(since we ignore the INVALID_PARAM returns from arm_set_cpu_on()
and friends).
There is a slight behavioural difference to the pre-4881658a4b
situation: the "reset this core" bit will remain set rather
than not being permitted to be set. The imx6 datasheet is
unclear about the behaviour in this odd corner case, so we
opt for the simpler code rather than complicated logic to
maintain identical behaviour.

The arm_reset_cpu/set_cpu_on/set_cpu_off() functions do their work
asynchronously in the target vCPUs context. As a result we need to
ensure the SRC_SCR reset bits correctly report the reset status at the
right time. To do this we defer the clearing of the bit with an async
job which will run after the work queued by ARM powerctl functions.
