[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 5/5] qom: allow properties to be registered against classes

["Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@redhat.com>]

When there are many instances of a given class, registering
properties against the instance is wasteful of resources. The
majority of objects have a statically defined list of possible
properties, so most of the properties are easily registerable
against the class. Only those properties which are conditionally
registered at runtime need be recorded against the klass.

Registering properties against classes also makes it possible
to provide static introspection of QOM - currently introspection
is only possible after creating an instance of a class, which
severely limits its usefulness.

This impl only supports simple scalar properties. It does not
attempt to allow child object / link object properties against
the class. There are ways to support those too, but it would
make this patch more complicated, so it is left as an exercise
for the future.

There is no equivalent to object_property_del provided, since
classes must be immutable once they are defined.
