Keeping the implicit tag implicit by not including it in local_members
was a conscious design decision, but if including it makes unifying
struct and union into objects easier, go right ahead.

The assertion checks that not passing members to gen_union() won't lose
any.  Before the patch, we assert there are none.  After the patch, we
assert there's either none or variants.tag_member.  Before ans after,
gen_union() takes care of variants.tag_member.  Okay.

Let's keep the comment, though.  Perhaps like this:

                # Members other than variants.tag_member not implemented
                assert len(members) == 1
                assert members[0] == variants.tag_member

I hope this the whole conditional will eventually be replaced by

           self.decl += gen_object(name, base, members, variants)

Likewise, let's keep the comment.

The test for simple union is hackish.

I guess you want to bypass self.tag_member.check() when for simple
unions, because it's now checked when QAPISchemaObjectType.check() calls
QAPISchemaObjectTypeMember.check() for each of self.local_members.

Could we instead make QAPISchemaAlternateType.check() call
QAPISchemaObjectTypeMember.check() for its implicit tag, and drop the
else here?

Two steps squashed together:

1. Simplify _make_members(OrderedDict(), info) to [].

2. Put a simple union's implicit tag_member into the members array
passed to QAPISchemaObjectType().

Okay.
