CHANGES IN V7:
- Removed dependency on xmlrpc-c for data transport. Now using JSON via QEMU's qjson
qobject<->json conversion routines. Binary encoding mechanisms such as Protocol
Buffers and ASN.1/BER were considered, but due to limited library support, and limitations
of isa/virtio serial transport that would have required an additional layer of encoding to
reliably determine RPC boundaries during transport (more here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/address@hidden/msg56237.html), qobject<->json seemed to
be the most prudent route.
