These patches add support for specifying lists of native qapi types (int/bool/str/number) like so: { 'type': 'foo', 'data': { 'bar': ['int'] }} for a 'bar' field that is a list of type 'int', { 'type': 'foo2', 'data': { 'bar2': ['str'] }} for a 'bar2' field that is a list of type 'str', and so on. This uses linked list types for the native C representations, just as we do for complex schema-defined types. In the future we may add schema annotations of some sort to specify a more natural/efficient array type for the C representations, but this should serve the majority of uses-cases for now.
