QEMU currently asserts if you try and create a PCI device
on the end of a very long chain, because the ID string
exceeds the maximum length, and ends up aliasing.

Fail with a clean error in this common case;  there's
lots of other places that call the various registration
functions that now check for this error; I've only made
sure the common qdev path fails cleanly.

With these patches it fails with the slightly cleaner:

qemu-system-x86_64: -device x3130-upstream,id=pci.52,bus=pci.51,addr=0x0: Path too long for VMState (0000:00:0f.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0:00.0)

I don't think in real uses we'll end up with paths this long,
so I'm not intending to fix the paths to be dynamic lengths
unless we find a really good case where it happens.
