[PATCH v3 2/4] util: introduce qemu_open and qemu_create with error reporting

[Daniel P . Berrangé]

This introduces two new helper metohds

  int qemu_open(const char *name, int flags, Error **errp);
  int qemu_create(const char *name, int flags, mode_t mode, Error **errp);

Note that with this design we no longer require or even accept the
O_CREAT flag. Avoiding overloading the two distinct operations
means we can avoid variable arguments which would prevent 'errp' from
being the last argument. It also gives us a guarantee that the 'mode' is
given when creating files, avoiding a latent security bug.
