Since commit 0439c5a462 ("block/block-backend.c: assertions for
block-backend") QEMU crashes when using Cocoa on Darwin hosts.
Example on macOS:
$ qemu-system-i386
Assertion failed: (qemu_in_main_thread()), function blk_all_next,
file block-backend.c, line 552.
Abort trap: 6
Looking with lldb:
Assertion failed: (qemu_in_main_thread()), function blk_all_next,
file block-backend.c, line 552.

As we are in passed release 7.0 hard freeze, disable the block
backend assertion which, while being valuable during development,
is not helpful to users. We'll restore this assertion immediately
once 7.0 is released and work on a fix.

I don't know, it seems to me that the reorganized initialization code
had only advantages.
For now, it fixes the regression and makes the Cocoa build much more
similar to the others. There is an easy way to fix the -runas
regression, by moving the code up to the call of -sharedApplication in
cocoa_display_init.
So the options are:
#1 disabling the assert for cocoa (this patch)
#2 run qemu_init() in the main thread from Paolo [*] with this (?)

# 3 "Create menus in iothread" approach from Akihiko:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20220321041043.24112-1-akihiko.od...@gmail.com/
Is that correct? (#2 patch and the 3 different options)
What is preferred between #2 and #3? I don't have enough knowledge to
take the decision, which is why I suggested the chicken-hearted "disable
assert" option #1.
Thanks,
Phil.
