>From a brief due dilligence (git grep -A10 fopen | grep EINTR | wc -l ==
0) I gather that no one ever checks EINTR after fopen, so I'm going to
avoid the complexity of possibly blocking in qemu_fopen_err and just
note in the qapi-schema wherever an qemu_fopen_err derived error might
be returned that the generic OpenFileFailed could indicate an EINTR.

I think it will at least be easier to fix it later in a single location,
that is at qemu_fopen_err, in a later patch.
