Letting zero instance_size imply abstract works (I guess), but is it
wise to imply?  Is requiring explicit .abstract = true really too much
trouble?

Consider:

    static const TypeInfo uc_interface_info = {
        .name          = TYPE_USER_CREATABLE,
        .parent        = TYPE_INTERFACE,
        .class_size = sizeof(UserCreatableClass),
    };

Is this abstract?  Yes, because there's no .instance_size = ...,
therefore .instance_size remains zero, and .abstract defaults to true.

    static const TypeInfo memory_region_info = {
        .parent             = TYPE_OBJECT,
        .name               = TYPE_MEMORY_REGION,
        .instance_size      = sizeof(MemoryRegion),
        .instance_init      = memory_region_initfn,
        .instance_finalize  = memory_region_finalize,
    };

Is this abstract?  No, because with .instance_size =
sizeof(MemoryRegion), which known to be non-zero, .abstract defaults to
false.

Is such a complex default a good idea?

   static const TypeInfo rng_backend_info = {
       .name = TYPE_RNG_BACKEND,
       .parent = TYPE_OBJECT,
       .instance_size = sizeof(RngBackend),
       .instance_init = rng_backend_init,
       .instance_finalize = rng_backend_finalize,
       .class_size = sizeof(RngBackendClass),
       .class_init = rng_backend_class_init,
       .abstract = true,
       .interfaces = (InterfaceInfo[]) {
           { TYPE_USER_CREATABLE },
           { }
       }
   };

Is this abstract?  Yes, because with .abstract = true, the default
doesn't matter.

How do you find all abstract TypeInfo in the source?  The uninitiated
might grep for .abstract = true, and be misled.  The initiated will be
annoyed instead, because grepping for *absence* of .instance_size = is
bothersome.

I suspect life could be easier going forward if we instead required
.abstract = true for interfaces, and enforced it with
assert(ti->instance_size || ti->abstract) here.

Sure this comment is worth having?

I'm having a mental block...  what exactly is this loop nest testing?
