These functions all return NULL rather than asserting, if the requested type is not registered and also cannot be dynamically loaded.
In several cases their usage is pointless, since the caller then just reports an error & exits anyway. Easier to just let qdev_new fail with &error_fatal. In other cases, the desired semantics are clearer to understand if the caller directly checks module_object_class_by_name(), before calling the regular qdev_new (or specialized equiv) function.
