This patch series is about purging the "type hint" from the block
layer.  My previous series cleaned up improper uses it.  Remaining
uses are info block and qdevs ide-drive, scsi-disk.

ide-drive and scsi-disk can either act as disk or as CD drive.  They
use their drive's type hint to decide between disk and CD.  This is
unclean.  Disk vs. CD needs to be in qdev, not BlockDriverState,
because it belongs to the drive's guest part.

Split them into separate devices for disk and CD.  Keep the old ones
for backward compatibility.

Remove the type hint from info block.  Its value is unreliable anyway.
libvirt doesn't use it.

I posted v1 quite some time ago.  Since we were working towards a
release then, we decided to take only the bonus bug fixes (PATCH 1-3),
and revisit the rest later.  Which has turned out to be "somewhat"
later than anticpiated.  Sorry about that.

v4:
* Trivially rebased
* Reordered again so that potentially controversial parts come later
  in the series
* Deprecate query-block's response member type instead of removing it

v3:
* Trivially rebased
* fix if=ide: ide_create_drive() got HD vs. CD backwards (one-liner)
* ide-cd and scsi-cd devices suppress default CD-ROM (PATCH 6/6)

v2:
* Rebased
* Review comments addressed
* Reordered so that potentially controversial parts come later in the
  series
* More verbose commit messages
