New option parameters unstable-input and unstable-output set policy

deprecated-output set policy for deprecated interfaces (see commit
6dd75472d5 "qemu-options: New -compat to set policy for deprecated

interfaces. It is experimental.
For now, this covers only syntactic aspects of QMP, i.e. stuff tagged
with feature 'unstable'. We may want to extend it to cover semantic
aspects, or the command line.
Note that there is no good way for management application to detect
presence of these new option parameters: they are not visible output
of query-qmp-schema or query-command-line-options. Tolerable, because
it's meant for testing. If running with -compat fails, skip the test.

By convention, names starting with "x-" are experimental. The parts
of external interfaces so named may be withdrawn or changed
incompatibly in future releases.
The naming convention makes unstable interfaces easy to recognize.
Promoting something from experimental to stable involves a name
change. Client code needs to be updated. Occasionally bothersome.
Worse, the convention is not universally observed:
* QOM type "input-barrier" has properties "x-origin", "y-origin".
Looks accidental, but it's ABI since 4.2.
* QOM types "memory-backend-file", "memory-backend-memfd",
"memory-backend-ram", and "memory-backend-epc" have a property
"x-use-canonical-path-for-ramblock-id" that is documented to be
stable despite its name.
We could document these exceptions, but documentation helps only
humans. We want to recognize "unstable" in code, like "deprecated".
So support recognizing it the same way: introduce new special feature
flag "unstable". It will be treated specially by the QAPI generator,
like the existing feature flag "deprecated", and unlike regular
feature flags.
This commit updates documentation and prepares tests. The next commit
updates the QAPI schema. The remaining patches update the QAPI
generator and wire up -compat policy checking.
Management applications can then use query-qmp-schema and -compat to
manage or guard against use of unstable interfaces the same way as for
deprecated interfaces.
docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.txt no longer mandates the naming convention.
Using it anyway might help writers of programs that aren't
full-fledged management applications. Not using it can save us
bothersome renames. We'll see how that shakes out.
