The qmp-input visitor was allowing callers to play rather fast
and loose: when visiting a QDict, you could grab members of the
root dictionary without first pushing into the dict; the final
such culprit was the QOM code for converting to and from object
properties. But we are about to tighten the input visitor, at
which point user_creatable_add_type() as called with a QMP input
visitor via qmp_object_add() MUST follow the same paradigms as
everyone else, of pushing into the struct before grabbing its
keys.
The use of 'err ? NULL : &err' is temporary; a later patch will
clean that up when it splits visit_end_struct().
The change has no impact to the testsuite now, but is required to
avoid a failure in tests/test-netfilter once qmp-input is made
stricter to detect inconsistent 'name' arguments on the root visit.
Since user_creatable_add_type() is also called with OptsVisitor
through user_creatable_add_opts(), we must also check that there
is no negative impact there; both pre- and post-patch, we see:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -nodefaults -qmp stdio -object
secret,id=sec0,data=letmein,format=raw,foo=bar
qemu-system-x86_64: Property '.foo' not found
That is, the only new checking that the new visit_end_struct() can
perform is for excess input, but we already catch excess input
earlier in object_property_set().
