Rather than requiring all flat unions to explicitly create
a separate base struct, we want to allow the qapi schema
to specify the common fields via an inline dictionary. This
is similar to how commands can specify inline types for the
arguments.
Now that the feature is legal, we can drop the former
flat-union-bad-base negative test, and instead change the
positive tests in qapi-schema-test to use it.
