iothread: add "iothread" qdev property type

Add a "iothread" qdev property type so devices can be hooked up to an
IOThread from the comand-line:

  qemu -object iothread,id=iothread0 \
       -device some-device,x-iothread=iothread0

Note that Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> has suggested using QOM
links instead.  This way the relationship between the objects is
reflected in QOM.  There are currently shortcomings of
object_property_add_link() which prevent this use case.  I will attempt
to fix them and move to QOM links in a separate series.
