Generalize machine compatibility properties

During "[PATCH v2 05/10] qom/globals: generalize
object_property_set_globals()" review, Eduardo suggested to rework the
GlobalProperty handling, so that -global is limited to QDev only and
we avoid mixing the machine compats and the user-provided -global
properties (instead of generalizing -global to various object kinds,
like I proposed in v2).

"qdev: do not mix compat props with global props" patch decouples a
bit user-provided -global from machine compat properties. This allows
to get rid of "user_provided" and "errp" fields in following patches.

A new compat property "x-use-canonical-path-for-ramblock-id" is added
to hostmem for legacy canonical path names, set to true for -file and
-memfd with qemu < 4.0.

(this series was initially titled "[PATCH v2 00/10] hostmem: use
object "id" for memory region name with >= 3.1", but its focus is more
in refactoring the global and compatilibity properties handling now)
