In the very least, a change like this requires discussion on the list.
The naming convention is goofy and it causes a massive merge problem. Something
like this _must_ be presented on the list first so people can provide input
and cope with it.
This reverts commit 99a0949b720a0936da2052cb9a46db04ffc6db29.

Some not so obvious bits, slirp and Xen were left alone for the time
being.

There are DEFINE_PROP_$TYPE("name", struct, field, default) macros for
each property type. These macros link the qdev_prop_$name struct to the
type used by that property. typeof(struct->field) is verifyed to be the
correct one for the given property.

This patch is a major overhaul of the device properties. The properties
are saved directly in the device state struct now, the linked list of
property values is gone.
Advantages:
* We don't have to maintain the list with the property values.
* The value in the property list and the value actually used by
the device can't go out of sync any more (used to happen for
the pci.devfn == -1 case) because there is only one place where
the value is stored.
* A record describing the property is required now, you can't set
random properties any more.
There are bus-specific and device-specific properties. The former
should be used for properties common to all bus drivers. Typical
use case is bus addressing, i.e. pci.devfn and i2c.address.
Properties have a PropertyInfo struct attached with name, size and
function pointers to parse and print properties. A few common property
types have PropertyInfos defined in qdev-properties.c. Drivers are free
to implement their own very special property parsers if needed.
Properties can have default values. If unset they are zero-filled.
