If device doesn't have parent assined before its realize
is called, device_set_realized() will implicitly set parent
to '/machine/unattached'.
However device_set_realized() may fail after that point at
several other points leaving not realized object dangling
in '/machine/unattached' and as result caller of
obj = object_new()
obj->ref == 1
object_property_set_bool(obj,..., true, "realized",...)
obj->ref == 2
if (fail)
object_unref(obj);
obj->ref == 1
will get object leak instead of expected object destruction.
Fix it by making device_set_realized() to cleanup after itself
in case of failure.

When there are many instances of a given class, registering
properties against the instance is wasteful of resources. The
majority of objects have a statically defined list of possible
properties, so most of the properties are easily registerable
against the class. Only those properties which are conditionally
registered at runtime need be recorded against the klass.
Registering properties against classes also makes it possible
to provide static introspection of QOM - currently introspection
is only possible after creating an instance of a class, which
severely limits its usefulness.
This impl only supports simple scalar properties. It does not
attempt to allow child object / link object properties against
the class. There are ways to support those too, but it would
make this patch more complicated, so it is left as an exercise
for the future.
There is no equivalent to object_property_del() provided, since
classes must be immutable once they are defined.

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.
