Yes, you're right.

No, this needs to be fixed the other way round: runtime_opts must use
the names as specified in the schema, and nfs_client_open() must access
them as such. Without that, blockdev-add can't work (and the command
line only with the "wrong" old option names from the URL, whereas it
should be using the same names as the QAPI schema).
