monitor.c mixes a lot of different things in a single file: The core
monitor infrastructure, HMP infrastrcture, QMP infrastructure, and the
implementation of several HMP and QMP commands. Almost worse, struct
Monitor mixes state for HMP, for QMP, and state actually shared between
all monitors. monitor.c must be linked with a system emulator and even
requires per-target compilation because some of the commands it
implements access system emulator state.

The reason why I care about this is that I'm working on a protoype for a
storage daemon, which wants to use QMP (but probably not HMP) and
obviously doesn't have any system emulator state. So I'm interested in
some core monitor parts that can be linked to non-system-emulator tools.

This series first creates separate structs MonitorQMP and MonitorHMP
which inherit from Monitor, and then moves the associated infrastructure
code into separate source files.

While the split is probably not perfect, I think it's an improvement of
the current state even for QEMU proper, and it's good enough so I can
link my storage daemon against just monitor/core.o and monitor/qmp.o and
get a useless QMP monitor that parses the JSON input and rejects
everything as an unknown command.

Next I'll try to teach it a subset of QMP commands that can actually be
supported in a tool, but while there will be a few follow-up patches to
achieve this, I don't expect that this work will bring up much that
needs to be changed in the splitting process done in this series.

Kevin Wolf (10):
  monitor: Remove unused password prompting fields
  monitor: Split monitor_init in HMP and QMP function
  monitor: Make MonitorQMP a child class of Monitor
  monitor: Create MonitorHMP with readline state
  monitor: Move cmd_table to MonitorHMP
  Move monitor.c to monitor/misc.c
  monitor: Create monitor_int.h with common definitions
  monitor: Split out monitor/qmp.c
  monitor: Split out monitor/hmp.c
  monitor: Split out monitor/core.c
