[PATCH 06/28] keyval: accept escaped commas in implied option

[Paolo Bonzini]

This is used with the weirdly-named device "SUNFD,fdtwo":

  $ qemu-system-sparc -device SUNW,,fdtwo,help
  SUNW,fdtwo options:
    drive=<str>            - Node name or ID of a block device to use as a 
backend
    fallback=<FdcDriveType> - FDC drive type, 144/288/120/none/auto (default: 
"144")
    ...

Therefore, accepting it is a preparatory step towards keyval-ifying
-device and the device_add monitor command.  In general, however, this
unexpected wart of the keyval syntax leads to suboptimal errors compared
to QemuOpts:

  $ ./qemu-system-x86_64 -object foo,,bar,id=obj
  qemu-system-x86_64: -object foo,,bar,id=obj: invalid object type: foo,bar
  $ storage-daemon/qemu-storage-daemon --object foo,,bar,id=obj
  qemu-storage-daemon: Invalid parameter ''

To implement this, the flow of the parser is changed to first unescape
everything up to the next comma or equal sign.  This is done in a
new function keyval_fetch_string for both the key and value part.
Keys therefore are now parsed in unescaped form, but this makes no
difference in practice because a comma is an invalid character for a
QAPI name.  Thus keys with a comma in them are rejected anyway, as
demonstrated by the new testcase.

As a side effect of the new code, parse errors are slightly improved as
well: "Invalid parameter ''" becomes "Expected parameter before '='"
when keyval is fed a string starting with an equal sign.

The slightly baroque interface of keyval_fetch_string lets me keep the
key parsing loop mostly untouched.  It is simplified in the next patch,
however.
