qemu-option: Guard against qemu_opts_set_defaults() misuse
Commit 6d4cd40 fixed qemu_opts_set_defaults() for an existing corner case, but broke it for another one that can't be reached in current code. Quote from its commit message: I believe [opts_parse()] attempts to do the following: If options don't yet exist, create new options Else, if defaults, modify the existing options Else, if list->merge_lists, modify the existing options Else, fail The only caller that passes true for defaults is qemu_opts_set_defaults(). The commit message then claims: A straightforward call of qemu_opts_create() does exactly that. Wrong. When !list->merge_lists, and the option string doesn't contain id=, and options without ID exist, then we don't actually modify the existing options, we create new ones. Not reachable, because we never pass lists with !list->merge_lists to qemu_opts_set_defaults(). Guard against possible (if unlikely) future misuse with assert().
