(1) same question about newlines applies
(2) the default setting is usually advertised in qemu-options.hx, not here
(3) the meaning of "default" is relative to the case when the option is
specified and the option argument is not, *not* relative to when the
option is missing. Cf.
(a) -name debug-threads
(b) -name debug-threads=on
(c) [nothing]
The default as explained by the help text (in qemu-options.hx),
independently of option argument type, is usually the difference between
(a) and (b), not (a) and (c), nor between (b) and (c).
Here, due to the way boolean options are parsed in parse_option_bool(),
(a) is identical to (b), so the default is "on". (See -msg timestamp in
qemu-options.hx, it's similar.)
I *think*. But I could never really form a decisive understanding of the
tradition here, so feel free to ignore it.

(4) I'm not sure you need the surrounding "if". qemu_opt_get() and
qemu_opt_get_bool() both start with qemu_opt_find().
With the "if", if the option is not passed, then you leave
"name_threads" at its default value (== false).
Without the "if", if the option is not passed, then you overwrite
"name_threads" with the option default (== false). I think the code
would be simpler if you dropped the surrounding "if".

Anyway I shouldn't obsess about this (also because if I do and you
respin, I get to review v3 too :))
