We currently hard-code property size at 4096 for the purposes of getattr()/stat()/etc. For 'state' properties we can exceed this easily, leading to truncated responses.
Instead, for a particular property, make it max(4096, most_recent_property_size * 2). This allows some head-room for properties that change size periodically (numbers, strings, state properties containing arrays, etc) Also, implement a simple property cache to avoid spinning on qom-get if an application reads beyond the actual size. This also allows us to use a snapshot of a single qom-get that persists across read()'s. Old Cache entries are evicted as soon as we attempt to read() from offset 0 again.
