Duplicated when commit 680d16dc added error_set_errno(), and again when
commit 20840d4c added error_set_win32().

Make the original copy in error_set() reusable by factoring out
error_setv(), then rewrite error_set_errno() and error_set_win32() on
top of it.

I've typed error_report("%s", error_get_pretty(ERR)) too many times
already, and I've fixed too many instances of qerror_report_err(ERR)
to error_report("%s", error_get_pretty(ERR)) as well.  Capture the
pattern in a convenience function.

Since it's almost invariably followed by error_free(), stuff that into
the convenience function as well.

The next patch will put it to use.

Use fprintf(stderr instead. This removes dependency of libqemuutil.a
on the monitor.

We can further justify this change, in that this code path should only
trigger under a fatal error condition. fprintf-stderr is probably the
appropriate medium as under a fatal error conidition the monitor itself
may be down and out for the count. So assertion failure messages should
go lowest common denominator - straight to stderr.

Fixes the build as reported by Kevin Wolf. Issue debugged and change
suggested by Luiz Capitulino. Issue introduced by
5d24ee70.

Add a special Error * that can be passed to error handling APIs to
signal that any errors are fatal and should abort QEMU. There are two
advantages to this:

- allows for brevity when wishing to assert success of Error **
  accepting APIs. No need for this pattern:
        Error * local_err = NULL;
        api_call(foo, bar, &local_err);
        assert_no_error(local_err);
  This also removes the need for _nofail variants of APIs with
  asserting call sites now reduced to 1LOC.
- SIGABRT happens from within the offending API. When a fatal error
  occurs in an API call (when the caller is asserting sucess) failure
  often means the API itself is broken. With the abort happening in the
  API call now, the stack frames into the call are available at debug
  time. In the assert_no_error scheme the abort happens after the fact.

The exact semantic is that when an error is raised, if the argument
Error ** matches &error_abort, then the abort occurs immediately. The
error messaged is reported.

For error_propagate, if the destination error is &error_abort, then
the abort happens at propagation time.

There may be calls to error_setg() and especially error_setg_errno()
which blindly (and until now wrongly) assume these functions not to
clobber errno (e.g., they pass errno to error_setg_errno() and return
-errno afterwards). Instead of trying to find and fix all of these
constructs, just make sure error_setg() and error_setg_errno() indeed do
not clobber errno.

This commit changes all QERR_ macros to contain a human message (ie.
the desc string found in qerr_table[]) instead of a json dictionary

both function receive a human message instead and the qobject is

The new argument is added to functions qerror_report() and error_set().
It's stored in Error and QError. qerror_report_err() is also updated to
take care of it.

The QERR_ macros are changed to contain a place holder value for the
new argument, so that the value is used on all current calls to
qerror_report() and error_set() (and also to initialize qerror_table[]).

Next commit will update the QERR_ macros with a proper ErrorClass

The declaration of function error_set() should use macro GCC_FMT_ATTR
instead of gcc's format printf attribute.

For w32/w64, both declarations are different and GCC_FMT_ATTR is needed.
Compilation for w64 even failed with the original code because mingw64
defines a macro for printf.

GCC_FMT_ATTR requires qemu-common.h, so add it in error.c
(it's also included by error_int.h but too late).

Remove assert.h which is included by qemu-common.h.
