This is so as to allow APIs which operate on specific client types
without having to add a function table entry which is only implemented
by a single client type.

Introduce a 'peer' member to VLANClientState as an alternative
to a vlan. The idea being that packets are transfered directly
from peer clients rather than going through a vlan.

destroy_nic() requires that NICInfo::private by a PCIDevice pointer,
but then goes on to require that the same pointer matches
VLANClientState::opaque.
That is no longer the case for virtio-net since qdev and wasn't
previously the case for rtl8139, ne2k_pci or eepro100.
Make the situation a lot more clear by maintaining a VLANClientState
pointer in NICInfo.

VLANClientState's fd_read() handler doesn't read from file
descriptors, it adds a buffer to the client's receive queue.
Re-name the handlers to make things a little less confusing.

This, apparently, is the style we prefer - all VLANClientState
should be an argument to qemu_new_vlan_client().

We're currently leaking memory and file descriptors on device

NICInfo isn't used after initialization, so remove it from the driver
state structures.

Some NIC init functions are only called when that model is
the only valid model. In that case, it makes sense to use
qemu_check_nic_model() from the NIC init function itself.

Allow the user to supply a vlan client name on the command line.
This is probably only useful for management tools so that they can
use their own names rather than parsing the output of 'info network'.

Don't lose track of what type/model a vlan client is so that we can
e.g. assign a global per-model id to clients.
The entire patch is basically a tedious excercise in making sure the
type/model string gets propagated down to qemu_new_vlan_client().
