"-netdev socket" only supports inet sockets.

It's not a complex task to add support for unix sockets, but
the socket netdev parameters are not defined to manage well unix
socket parameters.

As discussed in:

  "socket.c added support for unix domain socket datagram transport"
  https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/1C0E1BC5-904F-46B0-8044-68E43E67BE60@gmail.com/

This series adds support of unix socket type using SocketAddress QAPI structure.

Two new netdev backends, "stream" and "dgram" are added, that are barely a copy of "socket"
backend but they use the SocketAddress QAPI to provide socket parameters.
And then they also implement unix sockets (TCP and UDP).

Some examples of CLI syntax:

  for TCP:

  -netdev stream,id=socket0,addr.type=inet,addr.host=localhost,addr.port=1234
  -netdev stream,id=socket0,server=off,addr.type=inet,addr.host=localhost,addr.port=1234

  -netdev dgram,id=socket0,\
          local.type=inet,local.host=localhost,local.port=1234,\
          remote.type=inet,remote.host=localhost,remote.port=1235

  for UNIX:

  -netdev stream,id=socket0,addr.type=unix,addr.path=/tmp/qemu0
  -netdev stream,id=socket0,server=off,addr.type=unix,addr.path=/tmp/qemu0

  -netdev dgram,id=socket0,\
          local.type=unix,local.path=/tmp/qemu0,\
          remote.type=unix,remote.path=/tmp/qemu1

  for FD:

  -netdev stream,id=socket0,addr.type=fd,addr.str=4
  -netdev stream,id=socket0,server=off,addr.type=fd,addr.str=5

  -netdev dgram,id=socket0,local.type=fd,addr.str=4

v2:
  - use "stream" and "dgram" rather than "socket-ng,mode=stream"
    and ""socket-ng,mode=dgram"
  - extract code to bypass qemu_opts_parse_noisily() to
    a new patch
  - do not ignore EINVAL (Stefano)
  - fix "-net" option
