Please use the name argument instead of "file".

I think this should simply take a drive name and pass it to
bdrv_get_device_name.  The drive_add/drive_init should be done
separately with the drive_add monitor command, like

drive_add 0 file=foo.img,if=none,id=bar

With the upcoming support for static properties in objects that are not
devices, you can just add a drive property to the SD class.

There is a problem here however.  QOM commands are HMP only, and
drive_add is QMP only.  I think that blocking drive_add in QMP is
perfect being the enemy of good.  Alternatively, however, adding the QOM
property commands to HMP would also make sense.
