[PATCH v4 0/1] Optimizing the print format of the QEMU monitor 'info mtree'

[PATCH v4 0/1] Optimizing the print format of the QEMU monitor 'info mtree'

[Chao Liu]

Hi, all:

Thanks to Markus, BALATON, and Philippe for their reviews

In PATCH v4, 
I have extensively incorporated everyone's suggestions and made the
following improvements:

1. When printing the child nodes of a single node, the line characters from the
parent node's level are no longer printed, making the output more concise
and clear overall;

2. Use more commonly used ASCII characters, such as '|--' instead of '├──',
and '`--' instead of '└──';

3. Control the number of prefix characters to reduce unnecessary output;

The result is as follows:

```
$ ./qemu-system-aarch64 -S -monitor stdio -M raspi4b
(qemu) info mtree
address-space: memory
`-- 0000000000000000-ffffffffffffffff (prio 0, i/o): system
