No change in behavior, because this is the only use of camel_to_upper().

The move of c_name() out of camel_to_upper() is clearly wanted to make
it usable for other languages.

What about .lstrip('_')?  I wonder why we even have it.  Goes back all
the way to commit 6299659f544 (qapi script: code move for
generate_enum_name()) from 2014.  It seems to affect just
tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json's

    { 'enum': '__org.qemu_x-Enum', 'data': [ '__org.qemu_x-value' ] }

This tests a downstream extension prefix __RFQDN_.

As is, we generate

    typedef enum __org_qemu_x_Enum {
        ORG_QEMU_X_ENUM___ORG_QEMU_X_VALUE,
        ORG_QEMU_X_ENUM__MAX,
    } __org_qemu_x_Enum;

Without the .lstrip('_'), we'd generate

    typedef enum __org_qemu_x_Enum {
        __ORG_QEMU_X_ENUM___ORG_QEMU_X_VALUE,
        __ORG_QEMU_X_ENUM__MAX,
    } __org_qemu_x_Enum;

Meh.

Turns out this isn't on purpose.  Back then, the loop to map camel to
upper worked differently, and produced unwanted leading '_'.  For
instance, it mapped 'AbraCadabra' to '_ABRA_CADABRA'.  The .lstrip()
made the function produce 'ABRA_CADABRA'.  It also makes it eat
downstream extensions' leading '__'.  Oopsie.

By moving it, we insulate Rust from this accident.  Okay.

We could delete it instead.  Might inconvenience downstreams.  Not a
demand; you may wish to keep this series focused on Rust.
