Thanks for the feedback on the RFC. This time around the alias property is
implemented at the QOM property level instead of at the qdev property level.
Note that this series only addresses virtio-blk. In later series we can
convert virtio net, scsi, rng, and serial.
The virtio transport/device split is broken as follows:
1. The virtio-blk device is never finalized because the transport devices
(virtio-blk-pci and friends) leak the refcount.
2. If we fix the refcount leak then we double-free the 'serial' string property
upon hot unplug since its char* is copied into the virtio-blk device which
has an identical 'serial' qdev property.
This series solves both of these problems as follows:
1. Introduce a QOM alias property that lets the transport device forward
property accesses into the virtio device (the child).
2. Use alias properties in transport devices, instead of keeping a duplicate
copy of the VirtIOBlkConf struct.
3. Fix the virtio-blk device refcount leak. It's now safe to do this since the
double-free has been resolved.
Tested that hotplug/hotunplug of virtio-blk-pci still works.
