libqemuutil, qapi, trace: convert to meson

This shows how to do some "computations" in meson.build using its array
and dictionary data structures, and also a basic usage of the sourceset
module for conditional compilation.

Notice the new "if have_system" part of util/meson.build, which fixes
a bug in the old build system was buggy: util/dbus.c was built even for
non-softmmu builds, but the dependency on -lgio was lost when the linking
was done through libqemuutil.a. Because all of its users required gio
otherwise, the bug was hidden. Meson instead propagates libqemuutil's
dependencies down to its users, and shows the problem.

schemas: Add vim modeline

The various schemas included in QEMU use a JSON-based format which
is, however, strictly speaking not valid JSON.

As a consequence, when vim tries to apply syntax highlight rules
for JSON (as guessed from the file name), the result is an unreadable
mess which mostly consist of red markers pointing out supposed errors
in, well, pretty much everything.

Using Python syntax highlighting produces much better results, and
in fact these files already start with specially-formatted comments
that instruct Emacs to process them as if they were Python files.

This commit adds the equivalent special comments for vim.

qemu-storage-daemon: Add --monitor option

This adds and parses the --monitor option, so that a QMP monitor can be
used in the storage daemon. The monitor offers commands defined in the
QAPI schema at storage-daemon/qapi/qapi-schema.json.

The --monitor options currently allows to create multiple monitors with
the same ID. This part of the interface is considered unstable. We will
reject such configurations as soon as we have a design for the monitor
subsystem to perform these checks. (In the system emulator, we depend on
QemuOpts rejecting duplicate IDs.)
