i386/kvm: Delete kvm_allows_irq0_override()

As IRQ routing is always available on x86,
kvm_allows_irq0_override() will always return true, so we don't
need the function anymore.

target/i386: always create kvmclock device

QEMU's kvmclock device is only created when KVM PV feature bits for
kvmclock (KVM_FEATURE_CLOCKSOURCE/KVM_FEATURE_CLOCKSOURCE2) are
exposed to the guest. With 'kvm=off' cpu flag the device is not
created and we don't call KVM_GET_CLOCK/KVM_SET_CLOCK upon migration.
It was reported that without these call at least Hyper-V TSC page
clocksouce (which can be enabled independently) gets broken after
migration.

Switch to creating kvmclock QEMU device unconditionally, it seems
to always make sense to call KVM_GET_CLOCK/KVM_SET_CLOCK on migration.
Use KVM_CAP_ADJUST_CLOCK check instead of CPUID feature bits.

numa: Auto-enable NUMA when any memory devices are possible

Let's auto-enable it also when maxmem is specified but no slots are
defined. This will result in us properly creating ACPI srat tables,
indicating the maximum possible PFN to the guest OS. Based on this, e.g.,
Linux will enable the swiotlb properly.

This avoids having to manually force the switolb on (swiotlb=force) in
Linux in case we're booting only using DMA memory (e.g., 2GB on x86-64),
and virtio-mem adds memory later on that really needs the swiotlb to be
used for DMA.

Let's take care of backwards compatibility if somebody has a setup that
specifies "maxram" without "slots".

q35 does this for backward compatibility, there is no reason to do this

more than enough. Using an mmio window smaller than 1G is bad for
gigabyte alignment and hugepages though. So split @ 3G unconditionally.

qom: Drop parameter @errp of object_property_add() & friends

The only way object_property_add() can fail is when a property with
the same name already exists. Since our property names are all
hardcoded, failure is a programming error, and the appropriate way to
handle it is passing &error_abort.

Same for its variants, except for object_property_add_child(), which
additionally fails when the child already has a parent. Parentage is
also under program control, so this is a programming error, too.

We have a bit over 500 callers. Almost half of them pass
&error_abort, slightly fewer ignore errors, one test case handles
errors, and the remaining few callers pass them to their own callers.

The previous few commits demonstrated once again that ignoring
programming errors is a bad idea.

Of the few ones that pass on errors, several violate the Error API.
The Error ** argument must be NULL, &error_abort, &error_fatal, or a
pointer to a variable containing NULL. Passing an argument of the
latter kind twice without clearing it in between is wrong: if the
first call sets an error, it no longer points to NULL for the second
call. ich9_pm_add_properties(), sparc32_ledma_realize(),
sparc32_dma_realize(), xilinx_axidma_realize(), xilinx_enet_realize()
are wrong that way.

When the one appropriate choice of argument is &error_abort, letting
users pick the argument is a bad idea.

Drop parameter @errp and assert the preconditions instead.

There's one exception to "duplicate property name is a programming
error": the way object_property_add() implements the magic (and
undocumented) "automatic arrayification". Don't drop @errp there.
Instead, rename object_property_add() to object_property_try_add(),
and add the obvious wrapper object_property_add().

qom: Drop object_property_set_description() parameter @errp

object_property_set_description() and
object_class_property_set_description() fail only when property @name
is not found.

There are 85 calls of object_property_set_description() and
object_class_property_set_description(). None of them can fail:

* 84 immediately follow the creation of the property.

* The one in spapr_rng_instance_init() refers to a property created in
spapr_rng_class_init(), from spapr_rng_properties[].

Every one of them still gets to decide what to pass for @errp.

51 calls pass &error_abort, 32 calls pass NULL, one receives the error
and propagates it to &error_abort, and one propagates it to
&error_fatal. I'm actually surprised none of them violates the Error
API.

What are we gaining by letting callers handle the "property not found"
error? Use when the property is not known to exist is simpler: you
don't have to guard the call with a check. We haven't found such a
use in 5+ years. Until we do, let's make life a bit simpler and drop
the @errp parameter.
