qom: Add object_new_with_props() / object_new_withpropv() helpers
It is reasonably common to want to create an object, set a
number of properties, register it in the hierarchy and then
mark it as complete (if a user creatable type). This requires
quite a lot of error prone, verbose, boilerplate code to achieve.
First a pair of functions object_set_props() / object_set_propv()
are added which allow for a list of objects to be set in
one single API call.
Then object_new_with_props() / object_new_with_propv() constructors
are added which simplify the sequence of calls to create an
object, populate properties, register in the object composition
tree and mark the object complete, into a single method call.
Usage would be:
Error *err = NULL;
Object *obj;
obj = object_new_with_propv(TYPE_MEMORY_BACKEND_FILE,
object_get_objects_root(),
"hostmem0",
&err,
"share", "yes",
"mem-path", "/dev/shm/somefile",
"prealloc", "yes",
"size", "1048576",
NULL);
Note all property values are passed in string form and will
be parsed into their required data types, using normal QOM
semantics for parsing from string format.
