We want to use type definitions here (such TYPE_CCID_PASSTHRU),
as we don't guaranty them stable.

We don't want to include various "hw/x/y.h" in this core file.

Since there is a relation between QOM type and the module,
can we store/use the module name in the TypeInfo declaration?

  static const TypeInfo passthru_card_info = {
      .name          = TYPE_CCID_PASSTHRU,
      .parent        = TYPE_CCID_CARD,
      .instance_size = sizeof(PassthruState),
      .class_init    = passthru_class_initfn,
      .module_name   = "usb-smartcard",        <=====
  };

Actually this modularization is not specific to QDEV
and can be used to all QOM right? I.e:

  static const TypeInfo qcrypto_tls_creds_x509_info = {
      .parent = TYPE_QCRYPTO_TLS_CREDS,
      .name = TYPE_QCRYPTO_TLS_CREDS_X509,
      .module_name = "gnu-tls",
      ...
  }
