It is possible to specify more than one VNC server on the command line,
either with an explicit ID or the auto-generated ones à la "default",
"vnc2", "vnc3", ...
It is not possible to change the password on one of these extra VNC
displays though. Fix this by adding a "display" parameter to the
"set_password" and "expire_password" QMP and HMP commands.
For HMP, the display is specified using the "-d" value flag.
For QMP, the schema is updated to explicitly express the supported
variants of the commands with protocol-discriminated unions.

The HMP command \"change vnc TARGET\" is messy:
- it takes an ugly shortcut to determine if the option has an "id",
with incorrect results if "id=" is not preceded by an unescaped
comma.
- it deletes the existing QemuOpts and does not try to rollback
if the parsing fails (which is not causing problems, but only due to
how VNC options are parsed)
- because it uses the same parsing function as "-vnc", it forces
the latter to not support "-vnc help".
On top of this, it uses a deprecated QMP command, thus getting in
the way of removing the QMP command. Since the usecase for the
command is not clear, just remove it and send "change vnc password"
directly to the QMP "change-vnc-password" command.

We have four HMP commands which have a single-character abbreviated
version: cont ('c'), quit ('q'), print ('p') and help ('h'). For
cont, quit and print, we list the abbreviation first in the help
documentation and the command name. This has the odd effect that in
the full 'help' command list these commands end up sorted out of
alphabetical order (they end up after all the other commands that
start with the same letter). As it happens, the only place this
currently changes the order is for 'cont'.
Abbreviation first is also not a very logical order, and it doesn't
match what we use for 'help' (which is 'help|?'). Put the full
command name first in both the help text and the .name field for
cont, quit and print.

Thanks to the monitors' coroutine support (merge commit b7092cda1b),
the screendump handler can trigger a graphic_hw_update(), yield and let
the main loop run until update is done. Then the handler is resumed, and
ppm_save() will write the screen image to disk in the coroutine context.
The IO is still blocking though, as the file is set blocking so far,
this could be addressed by some future change (with other caveats).

block_resize performs some I/O that could potentially take quite some
time, so use it as an example for the new 'coroutine': true annotation
in the QAPI schema.
bdrv_truncate() requires that we're already in the right AioContext for
the BlockDriverState if called in coroutine context. So instead of just
taking the AioContext lock, move the QMP handler coroutine to the
context.
Call blk_unref() only after switching back because blk_unref() may only
be called in the main thread.

At this moment, QEMU attempts to create/load/delete snapshots
by using either an ID (id_str) or a name. The problem is that the code
isn't consistent of whether the entered argument is an ID or a name,
causing unexpected behaviors.
For example, when creating snapshots via savevm <arg>, what happens is that
"arg" is treated as both name and id_str. In a guest without snapshots, create
a single snapshot via savevm:
(qemu) savevm 0
(qemu) info snapshots
List of snapshots present on all disks:
ID TAG VM SIZE DATE VM CLOCK
-- 0 741M 2018-07-31 13:39:56 00:41:25.313
A snapshot with name "0" is created. ID is hidden from the user, but the
ID is a non-zero integer that starts at "1". Thus, this snapshot has
id_str=1, TAG="0". Creating a second snapshot with arg = 1, the first one
is deleted:
(qemu) savevm 1
(qemu) info snapshots
List of snapshots present on all disks:

What happened?
- when creating the second snapshot, a verification is done inside
bdrv_all_delete_snapshot to delete any existing snapshots that matches an
string argument. Here, the code calls bdrv_all_delete_snapshot("1", ...);
- bdrv_all_delete_snapshot calls bdrv_snapshot_find(..., "1") for each
BlockDriverState of the guest. And this is where things goes tilting:
bdrv_snapshot_find does a search by both id_str and name. It finds
out that there is a snapshot that has id_str = 1, stores a reference
to the snapshot in the sn_info pointer and then returns match found;
- since a match was found, a call to bdrv_snapshot_delete_by_id_or_name() is
made. This function ignores the pointer written by bdrv_snapshot_find. Instead,
it deletes the snapshot using bdrv_snapshot_delete() calling it first with
id_str = 1. If it fails to delete, then it calls it again with name = 1.
- after all that, QEMU creates the new snapshot, that has id_str = 1 and
name = 1. The user is left wondering that happened with the first snapshot
created. Similar bugs can be triggered when using loadvm and delvm.
Before contemplating discarding the use of ID input in these operations,
I've searched the code of what would be the implications. My findings
are:
- the RBD and Sheepdog drivers don't care. Both uses the 'name' field as
key in their logic, making id_str = name when appropriate.
replay-snapshot.c does not make any special use of id_str;
- qcow2 uses id_str as an unique identifier but it is automatically
calculated, not being influenced by user input. Other than that, there are
no distinguish operations made only with id_str;
- in blockdev.c, the delete operation uses a match of both id_str AND
name. Given that id_str is either a copy of 'name' or auto-generated,
we're fine here.
This gives motivation to not consider ID as a valid user input in HMP
commands - sticking with 'name' input only is more consistent. To
accomplish that, the following changes were made in this patch:
- bdrv_snapshot_find() does not match for id_str anymore, only 'name'. The
function is called in save_snapshot(), load_snapshot(), bdrv_all_delete_snapshot()
and bdrv_all_find_snapshot(). This change makes the search function more
predictable and does not change the behavior of any underlying code that uses
these affected functions, which are related to HMP (which is fine) and the
main loop inside vl.c (which doesn't care about it anyways);
- bdrv_all_delete_snapshot() does not call bdrv_snapshot_delete_by_id_or_name
anymore. Instead, it uses the pointer returned by bdrv_snapshot_find to
erase the snapshot with the exact match of id_str an name. This function
is called in save_snapshot and hmp_delvm, thus this change produces the
intended effect;
- documentation changes to reflect the new behavior. I consider this to
be an API fix instead of an API change - the user was already creating
snapshots using 'name', but now he/she will also enjoy a consistent
behavior.
Ideally we would get rid of the id_str field entirely, but this would have
repercussions on existing snapshots. Another day perhaps.

The command introduced here is just for developers. This means that:
- the interface implemented here could change in the future
- the command is only meant to be used from HMP, not from QMP

This reinstates commit a7aff6dd10,
which was temporarily reverted for the 3.0 release so that libvirt gets
some extra time to update their command lines.
The -drive options cyls, heads, secs and trans were deprecated in
QEMU 2.10. It's time to remove them.
hd-geo-test tested both the old version with geometry options in -drive
and the new one with -device. Therefore the code using -drive doesn't
have to be replaced there, we just need to remove the -drive test cases.
This in turn allows some simplification of the code.

This patch adds Windows crashdumping feature. Now QEMU can produce ELF-dump
containing Windows crashdump header, which can help to convert to a valid
WinDbg-understandable crashdump file, or immediately create such file.
The crashdump will be obtained by joining physical memory dump and 8K header
exposed through vmcoreinfo/fw_cfg device by guest driver at BSOD time. Option
'-w' was added to dump-guest-memory command. At the moment, only x64
configuration is supported.
Suitable driver can be found at

The dump-guest-memory command is used to dump an area of guest memory
to a file, the piece of memory is specified by a begin address and
a length. These parameters are specified as ints and thus have a maximum
value of 4GB. This means you can't dump the guest memory past the first
4GB and instead get:
(qemu) dump-guest-memory tmp 0x100000000 0x100000000
'dump-guest-memory' has failed: integer is for 32-bit values
Try "help dump-guest-memory" for more information
This limitation is imposed in monitor_parse_arguments() since they are
both ints. hmp_dump_guest_memory() uses 64 bit quantities to store both
the begin and length values. Thus specify begin and length as long so
that the entire guest memory space can be dumped.
