The patch is already quite big, so please move the qemu-option.c changes
to separate patches.

For example, patch 7 could add def_value and use it in qemu_opts_print.
 Patch 8 should add append_opts_list, free_opts_list, print_opts_list.
Patch 9 should touch only the block layer.  Patch 10 should remove the
now-unuse QEMUOptionParameter code.

(Regarding def_value, it is quite unintuitive that you need to specify
the value again when calling qemu_opt_get_*.  Perhaps,
qemu_opts_validate could instead walk through descriptors that are not
present but have a default value, and add new options with the default
value to the QemuOpts object).
