This adds tracing around object allocation & finalization, the addition &
deletion of properties, and the addition & deletion of children.

The 4th and 5th parameters are the child being added, not a parent.
In object_property_try_add_child the call is:
trace_object_property_add_child(obj, ..., child, child->class->type->name)
So the parameter names should be "child"/"childtype" and the format
string should use "child=" / "child-type=".

The object_new_with_props/propv methods failed to validate the ID string
format, thus diverging from user_creatable_add_type.

I see the last patch of this series remove the duplication, so:

At the end of this series, the only other use of id_wellformed in
qom/object_interfaces.c is removed, so there is no need for an
extracted helper method IMHO

object_new_with_props can't put 'errp' last due to the use of
variadic arguments. That constraint does not apply to the use
of va_list with object_new_with_propv, so follow normal practice
with 'errp' placement.
The same rationale applies to object_set_propv.

This matches the location of the object_set_props and object_set_propv
methods, since this method is not inherently tied to the user creatable
interface. As part of this, object_set_props_from_qdict is also exposed
as a public API since it is still called from object_interfaces.c.

This will be used to replace user_creatable_add_type with an impl
that shares most code with object_new_with_props, and is not tied
to the user creatable interface.

This should take a const QDict, same for the _parentless added later.

Ah yes, that would match the existing object_set_props_from_qdict
signature.
With regards,

object_new_with_propv allowed id/parent to be optional, in which case
the caller was expected to own the returned object. Unfortunately a
trailing object_unref() meant that the returned object was already
freed.
It is confusing to have a single method with two different ownership
scenarios for the returned object.
Make id/parent mandatory in object_new_with_propv once more, and add
a new object_new_with_propv_parentless that does not accept id/parent
at all and lets the caller own the returned reference.
The helper method has abstracted the way properties are represented
and setk in order to facilitate the subsequent commit.
Unit tests are added to address the root cause that allowed the bug
to slip through in commit 6134d752.

The object_new_with_prop* methods will shortly be replacing the
user_creatable_add_type method. In order to do that, the
object_new_with_prop* methods must allow module loading to be
triggered for any types.

This can be replaced by object_new_with_props_from_qdict, which does
functionally the same job, but the caller does not own the returned
reference, instead the parent object owns it.
In one case we can use object_new_with_props_from_qdict_owned instead
since the object is not intended to have any parent.

It's worth to mention in the commit message that -object and object-add
go through QAPI ObjectOptions list, and thus don't need the
now gone TYPE_USER_CREATABLE check.

Actually I hadn't taken that into account as it doesn't matter what
the caller does in this case.
In this user_creatable_add_type method, we needed a TYPE_USER_CREATABLE
check because the method later calls 'user_creatable_complete'
unconditionally.
In the new object_new_with_prop* methods, user_creatable_complete
is conditionally called only if a cast to TYPE_USER_CREATABLE
succeeds.
With regards,
Daniel
