[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 02/12] net: add qemu_nic_format_info_dict and VLANClientState->info_dict

[Miguel Di Ciurcio Filho]

There is no standard format when formatting VLANClientState.info_str,
so it is difficult to extract information and transmit it over QMP.

This patch adds info_dict, a QDict to better handle the information
of a NIC.

Patches that convert the devices to use this new function will follow.
