This reverts commit 46d4d36d0b.
The reverted commit changed to emit warnings instead of errors when
vhost is requested but vhost initialization fails if vhostforce option
is not set.
However, vhostforce is not meant to ignore vhost errors. It was once
introduced as an option to commit 5430a28fe4 ("vhost: force vhost off
for non-MSI guests") to force enabling vhost for non-MSI guests, which
will have worse performance with vhost. The option was deprecated with
commit 1e7398a140 ("vhost: enable vhost without without MSI-X") and
changed to behave identical with the vhost option for compatibility.
Worse, commit bf769f742c ("virtio: del net client if net_init_tap_one
failed") changed to delete the client when vhost fails even when the
failure only results in a warning. The leads to an assertion failure
for the -netdev command line option.
The reverted commit was intended to avoid that the vhost initialization
failure won't result in a corrupted netdev. This problem should have
been fixed by deleting netdev when the initialization fails instead of
ignoring the failure with an arbitrary option. Fortunately, commit
bf769f742c ("virtio: del net client if net_init_tap_one failed"),
mentioned earlier, implements this behavior.
Restore the correct semantics and fix the assertion failure for the
-netdev command line option by reverting the problematic commit.

Most code which directly accesses nd_table[] and nb_nics uses them for
one of two things. Either "I have created a NIC device and I'd like a
configuration for it", or "I will create a NIC device *if* there is a
configuration for it". With some variants on the theme around whether
they actually *check* if the model specified in the configuration is
the right one.
Provide functions which perform both of those, allowing platforms to
be a little more consistent and as a step towards making nd_table[]
and nb_nics private to the net code.
One might argue that platforms ought to be consistent about whether
they create the unconfigured devices or not, but making significant
user-visible changes is explicitly *not* the intent right now.
The new functions leave the 'model' field of the NICInfo as NULL after
using it for the default NIC model, unlike the qemu_check_nic_model()
function which does set nd->model to match default_model explicitly.
This is acceptable because there is no code which consumes nd->model
except this NIC-matching code in net/net.c, and no reasonable excuse
for any code wanting to use nd->model in future.
Also export the qemu_find_nic_info() helper, as some platforms have
special cases they need to handle.

As qemu_opts_parse_noisily() flattens the QAPI structures ("type" field
of Netdev structure can collides with "type" field of SocketAddress),
we introduce a way to bypass qemu_opts_parse_noisily() and use directly
visit_type_Netdev() to parse the backend parameters.
More details from Markus:
qemu_init() passes the argument of -netdev, -nic, and -net to
net_client_parse().
net_client_parse() parses with qemu_opts_parse_noisily(), passing
QemuOptsList qemu_netdev_opts for -netdev, qemu_nic_opts for -nic, and
qemu_net_opts for -net. Their desc[] are all empty, which means any
keys are accepted. The result of the parse (a QemuOpts) is stored in
the QemuOptsList.
Note that QemuOpts is flat by design. In some places, we layer non-flat
on top using dotted keys convention, but not here.
net_init_clients() iterates over the stored QemuOpts, and passes them to
net_init_netdev(), net_param_nic(), or net_init_client(), respectively.
These functions pass the QemuOpts to net_client_init(). They also do
other things with the QemuOpts, which we can ignore here.
net_client_init() uses the opts visitor to convert the (flat) QemOpts to
a (non-flat) QAPI object Netdev. Netdev is also the argument of QMP
command netdev_add.
The opts visitor was an early attempt to support QAPI in
(QemuOpts-based) CLI. It restricts QAPI types to a certain shape; see
commit eb7ee2cbeb "qapi: introduce OptsVisitor".
A more modern way to support QAPI is qobject_input_visitor_new_str().
It uses keyval_parse() instead of QemuOpts for KEY=VALUE,... syntax, and
it also supports JSON syntax. The former isn't quite as expressive as
JSON, but it's a lot closer than QemuOpts + opts visitor.
This commit paves the way to use of the modern way instead.

Some network backends (vhost-user and vhost-vdpa) work only with

option handling will do and error out if they think a non-virtio device
will attach to them.
This second guessing is not only ugly, it can lead to wrong error
messages ('-device floppy,netdev=foo' should complain about an unknown
property, not about the wrong kind of network device being attached) and
completely ignores hotplugging.
Add a callback where backends can check compatibility with a device when
it actually tries to attach, even on hotplug.
