qjson: Have qobject_from_json() & friends reject empty and blank

The last case where qobject_from_json() & friends return null without
setting an error is empty or blank input. Callers:

* block.c's parse_json_protocol() reports "Could not parse the JSON
options". It's marked as a work-around, because it also covered
actual bugs, but they got fixed in the previous few commits.

* qobject_input_visitor_new_str() reports "JSON parse error". Also
marked as work-around. The recent fixes have made this unreachable,
because it currently gets called only for input starting with '{'.

* check-qjson.c's empty_input() and blank_input() demonstrate the
behavior.

* The other callers are not affected since they only pass input with
exactly one JSON value or, in the case of negative tests, one error.

Fail with "Expecting a JSON value" instead of returning null, and
simplify callers.

qobject: Replace qobject_incref/QINCREF qobject_decref/QDECREF

Now that we can safely call QOBJECT() on QObject * as well as its
subtypes, we can have macros qobject_ref() / qobject_unref() that work
everywhere instead of having to use QINCREF() / QDECREF() for QObject
and qobject_incref() / qobject_decref() for its subtypes.

The replacement is mechanical, except I broke a long line, and added a
cast in monitor_qmp_cleanup_req_queue_locked(). Unlike
qobject_decref(), qobject_unref() doesn't accept void *.

Note that the new macros evaluate their argument exactly once, thus no
need to shout them.

qapi: update the qobject visitor to use QNUM_U64

Switch to use QNum/uint where appropriate to remove i64 limitation.

The input visitor will cast i64 input to u64 for compatibility
reasons (existing json QMP client already use negative i64 for large
u64, and expect an implicit cast in qemu).

Note: before the patch, uint64_t values above INT64_MAX are sent over
json QMP as negative values, e.g. UINT64_MAX is sent as -1. After the
patch, they are sent unmodified. Clearly a bug fix, but we have to
consider compatibility issues anyway. libvirt should cope fine,
because its parsing of unsigned integers accepts negative values
modulo 2^64. There's hope that other clients will, too.

qobject-input-visitor: Reject non-finite numbers with keyval

The QObject input visitor can produce only finite numbers when its
input comes out of the JSON parser, because the the JSON parser
implements RFC 7159, which provides no syntax for infinity and NaN.

However, it can produce infinity and NaN when its input comes out of
keyval_parse(), because we parse with strtod() then.

The keyval variant should not be able to express things the JSON
variant can't. Rejecting non-finite numbers there is the conservative
fix. It's also minimally invasive.

We could instead extend our JSON dialect to provide for infinity and
NaN. Not today.

Note that the JSON formatter can emit non-finite numbers (marked FIXME
in commit 6e8e5cb).

keyval: Support lists

Additionally permit non-negative integers as key components. A
dictionary's keys must either be all integers or none. If all keys
are integers, convert the dictionary to a list. The set of keys must
be [0,N].

Examples:

* list.1=goner,list.0=null,list.1=eins,list.2=zwei
is equivalent to JSON [ "null", "eins", "zwei" ]

* a.b.c=1,a.b.0=2
is inconsistent: a.b.c clashes with a.b.0

* list.0=null,list.2=eins,list.2=zwei
has a hole: list.1 is missing

Similar design flaw as for objects: there is no way to denote an empty
list. While interpreting "key absent" as empty list seems natural
(removing a list member from the input string works when there are
multiple ones, so why not when there's just one), it doesn't work:
"key absent" already means "optional list absent", which isn't the
same as "empty list present".

Update the keyval object visitor to use this a.0 syntax in error
messages rather than the usual a[0].
