I'm going to fix the JSON parser to recognize null. The obvious
representation of JSON null as (QObject *)NULL doesn't work, because
the parser already uses it as an error value. Perhaps we should
change it to free NULL for null, but that's more than I can do right
now. Create a special null QObject instead.
The existing QDict, QList, and QString all represent something that
is a pointer in C and could therefore be associated with NULL. But
right now, all three of these sub-types are always non-null once
created, so the new null sentinel object is intentionally unrelated
to them.
Backports commit 481b002cc81ed7fc7b06e32e9d4d495d81739d14 from qemu
Adding an assertion to qobject_decref() will ensure that a
programming error causing use-after-free will result in
immediate failure (provided no other thread has started
using the memory) instead of silently attempting to wrap
refcnt around and leaving the problem to potentially bite
later at a harder point to diagnose.

Remove it except for two things in qerror.h:
* Two #include to be cleaned up separately to avoid cluttering this
patch.
* The QERR_ macros. Mark as obsolete.
Backports commit 4629ed1e98961bbe678db68ef5f4342ff174a6c3 from qemu
These macros expand into error class enumeration constant, comma,
string. Unclean. Has been that way since commit 13f59ae.
The error class is always ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR since the previous
commit.
* Prepend every use of a QERR_ macro by ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR, and
delete it from the QERR_ macro. No change after preprocessing.
* Rewrite error_set(ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR, ...) into
error_setg(...). Again, no change after preprocessing.
Backports commit c6bd8c706a799eb0fece99f468aaa22b818036f3 from qemu
Error classes other than ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR should not be used
in new code. Hiding them in QERR_ macros makes new uses hard to spot.
Fortunately, there's just one such macro left. Eliminate it with this
coccinelle semantic patch:

-error_set(EP, QERR_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND, E)
+error_set(EP, ERROR_CLASS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND, "Device '%s' not found", E)

Now that qbool is fixed, let's fix getting and setting a bool
value to a qdict member to also use C99 bool rather than int.
I audited all callers to ensure that the changed return type
will not cause any changed semantics.
Backports commit 34acbc95229f9f841bde83691a5af949c15e105b from qemu
We require a C99 compiler, so let's use 'bool' instead of 'int'
when dealing with boolean values. There are few enough clients
to fix them all in one pass.
