Do not consume a value if interpreting one failed so that we can
reinterpret the value with a different type.

bool has representations of "on" and "off" different from
OnOffAuto/OnOffSplit:
- The command line syntax accepts on/yes/true/y and off/no/false/n for
bool but only on and off for OnOffAuto.
- JSON uses true/false for bool but "on" and "off" for
OnOffAuto/OnOffSplit.
This inconsistency causes some problems:
- Users need to take the underlying type into consideration to determine
what literal to specify, increasing cognitive loads for human users
and complexity for programs invoking QEMU.
- Converting an existing bool property to OnOffAuto/OnOffSplit will
break compatibility.
Fix these problems by accepting bool literals for OnOffAuto/OnOffSplit.
This change is specific to OnOffAuto/OnOffSplit; types added in the
future may be defined as an alternate of bool and enum to avoid the
mentioned problems in the first place.

DEFINE_PROP_ON_OFF_AUTO_BIT64() corresponds to DEFINE_PROP_ON_OFF_AUTO()
as DEFINE_PROP_BIT64() corresponds to DEFINE_PROP_BOOL(). The difference
is that DEFINE_PROP_ON_OFF_AUTO_BIT64() exposes OnOffAuto instead of
bool.

Some features are not always available with vhost. Legacy features are
not available with vp_vdpa in particular. virtio devices used to disable
them when not available even if the corresponding properties were
explicitly set to "on".
QEMU already has OnOffAuto type, which includes the "auto" value to let
it automatically decide the effective value. Convert feature properties
to OnOffAuto and set them "auto" by default to utilize it. This allows
QEMU to report an error if they are set "on" and the corresponding
features are not available.

I've said on every previous version that I don't think we should be
changing OnOffAuto to secretly accept bool values. That is bypassing
QAPI schema definitions with a special code hack.

I also objected to v4. Thread starts at
Message-ID: <87cyfwxveo.fsf@pond.sub.org>
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/87cyfwxveo.fsf@pond.sub.org/
I could be persuaded to accept a patch that changes exactly the
properties that need to be changed to tri-state, with suitable
rationale. This patch changes a bunch of unrelated properties, too.

I replied to the thread as I found that I haven't replied to the last
message in the thread and the newer versions of the series do not
address its discussion points either.
