This commit converts the virtio-console device to create a new
virtio-serial bus that can host console and generic serial ports. The
file hosting this code is now called virtio-serial-bus.c.
The virtio console is now a very simple qdev device that sits on the
virtio-serial-bus and communicates between the bus and qemu's chardevs.
This commit also includes a few changes to the virtio backing code for
pci and s390 to spawn the virtio-serial bus.
As a result of the qdev conversion, we get rid of a lot of legacy code.
The old-style way of instantiating a virtio console using
-virtioconsole ...
is maintained, but the new, preferred way is to use
-device virtio-serial -device virtconsole,chardev=...
With this commit, multiple devices as well as multiple ports with a
single device can be supported.
For multiple ports support, each port gets an IO vq pair. Since the
guest needs to know in advance how many vqs a particular device will
need, we have to set this number as a property of the virtio-serial
device and also as a config option.
In addition, we also spawn a pair of control IO vqs. This is an internal
channel meant for guest-host communication for things like port
open/close, sending port properties over to the guest, etc.
This commit is a part of a series of other commits to get the full
implementation of multiport support. Future commits will add other
support as well as ride on the savevm version that we bump up here.

Currently only the S390 KVM target works. To keep users from accidently not
using KVM, let's not even initialize the machine when KVM is not used.

We used to always create one single virtio console device. This breaks when
either zero of multiple virtio console devices are requested, so let's use
the same code as on x86.

nd->model keeps dynamically allocated model names.
So casting of a constant string is wrong here.

s390 code has an obvious typo, which results in:
hw/s390-virtio.c: At top level:
hw/s390-virtio.c:249: error: request for member ‘no_vga’ in something not a structure or union

Building on 32 bit host we get:
hw/s390-virtio.c: In function ‘s390_init’:
hw/s390-virtio.c:184: error: integer constant is too large for ‘unsigned long’ type
64 bit values must be ULL.

All "normal" system emulation targets in qemu I'm aware of display
output on either VGA or serial output.
Our S390x virtio machine doesn't have such kind of legacy hardware. So
instead we need to default to a virtio console.
Add flags to QEMUMachine to indicate which kind of default devices make
sense for the machine in question. Use it for S390x: enable virtcon,
disable serial, parallel and vga.

In order to use the new S390x virtio bus we just introduced, we also
need a machine description that sets up the machine according to our
PV specification.
Let's add that machine description and be happy!
