qapi: Simplify semantics of visit_next_list() 
The semantics of the list visit are somewhat baroque, with the
following pseudocode when FooList is used:

start()
for (prev = head; cur = next(prev); prev = &cur) {
visit(&cur->value)
}

Note that these semantics (advance before visit) requires that
the first call to next() return the list head, while all other
calls return the next element of the list; that is, every visitor
implementation is required to track extra state to decide whether
to return the input as-is, or to advance. It also requires an
argument of 'GenericList **' to next(), solely because the first
iteration might need to modify the caller's GenericList head, so
that all other calls have to do a layer of dereferencing.

Thankfully, we only have two uses of list visits in the entire
code base: one in spapr_drc (which completely avoids
visit_next_list(), feeding in integers from a different source
than uint8List), and one in qapi-visit.py. That is, all other
list visitors are generated in qapi-visit.c, and share the same
paradigm based on a qapi FooList type, so we can refactor how
lists are laid out with minimal churn among clients.

We can greatly simplify things by hoisting the special case
into the start() routine, and flipping the order in the loop
to visit before advance:

start(head)
for (tail = *head; tail; tail = next(tail)) {
visit(&tail->value)
}

With the simpler semantics, visitors have less state to track,
the argument to next() is reduced to 'GenericList *', and it
also becomes obvious whether an input visitor is allocating a
FooList during visit_start_list() (rather than the old way of
not knowing if an allocation happened until the first
visit_next_list()). As a minor drawback, we now allocate in
two functions instead of one, and have to pass the size to
both functions (unless we were to tweak the input visitors to
cache the size to start_list for reuse during next_list, but
that defeats the goal of less visitor state).

The signature of visit_start_list() is chosen to match
visit_start_struct(), with the new parameters after 'name'.

The spapr_drc case is a virtual visit, done by passing NULL for
list, similarly to how NULL is passed to visit_start_struct()
when a qapi type is not used in those visits. It was easy to
provide these semantics for qmp-output and dealloc visitors,
and a bit harder for qmp-input (several prerequisite patches
refactored things to make this patch straightforward). But it
turned out that the string and opts visitors munge enough other
state during visit_next_list() to make it easier to just
document and require a GenericList visit for now; an assertion
will remind us to adjust things if we need the semantics in the
future.

Several pre-requisite cleanup patches made the reshuffling of
the various visitors easier; particularly the qmp input visitor.

Unicorn-Engine MSVC Native Port Notes

Zak Escano  -  January 2017

These notes are to help myself and others with the upkeep of the msvc native port
of unicorn-engine.

:: Changes porting unicorn from GNU/GCC to MSVC.

There were many many many changes to make this also build in MSVC
while still retaining the ability to build in GNU/GCC.
Most were due to either GCC specific things or MSVC lack of decent
standard C support especially in VS2012. Also some were for
posix/platform specific stuff that is not present in windows.

Some of the more common changes were:

* Compatibility for GCC style __attribute__'s.

* Change GCC switch case ranges to specify every case individually, ie:
  "case 1 ... 3:" changes to "case 1: case 2: case 3:"

* Change GCC struct member initialisation to the more generic
  initialisation of all members in order, ie:
  { .value = 1, .stuff = 2 } to { 1, 2 }

* Remove GCC style macro return values which MSVC does not support, ie:
  #define RETURN_ONE(x)  ({ some stuff; (void)1; })

* Compatibility for posix headers that are missing in windows, ie:
  stdbool.h, stdint.h, sys/time.h, unistd.h


:: CPU specific libraries

The gnu/gcc way of building the qemu portion of unicorn-engine involves makefile magic
that builds the same set of sourcecode files multiple times. They are built once for each
supported CPU type and force "#include" a CPU specific header file to re-"#define"
function and variable names that would otherwise be the same for each build.
These multiple builds of the same files are then all linked together to form
the unicorn library.

As an example when building for "x86_64" cpu type the generated header file "x86_64.h"
is force included and it contains a bunch of defines such as:
	#define phys_mem_clean     phys_mem_clean_x86_64
So you can see that it adds the cpu type on to the end of each name in order
to keep the names unique over the multiple builds.

The way I handle this in MSVC is to build a seperate cpu specific library, containing
this set of repeatedly used sourcecode files, for each supported cpu type.
These cpu specific libraries are then linked together to build the unicorn library.

For each supported CPU type

* Each CPU specific lib has a "forced include" file specified at:
	Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> Advanced -> Forced Include File
	so for x86-64 this is "the file "x86_64.h" which is a generated file.


:: Other things

* The Qemu code for GNU/GCC seems to rely on __i386__ or __x86_64__ defined if
  the host is 32bit or 64bit respectively.
  So when building 32bit libs in msvc we define __i386__.
  And when building 64bit libs in msvc we define __x86_64__.

* There is a tcg-target.c for each target that is included into tcg.c.
  This is done using "#include tcg-target.c"
  It is NOT built separately as part of the *.c files for the project.


:: Info from makefiles

This info is compiled here together to help with deciding on the build settings to use.
It may or may not be of use to anyone in the future once this all builds ok :)
