When replaying a trace, it is possible to go from shutdown to running
with a reverse-debugging step. This can be useful if the problem being
debugged triggers a reset or shutdown.
This can be tested by making a recording of a machine that shuts down,
then using -action shutdown=pause when replaying it. Continuing to the
end of the trace then reverse-stepping in gdb crashes due to invalid
runstate transition.
Just permitting the transition seems to be all that's necessary for
reverse-debugging to work well in such a state.

Emit a QMP event on receiving a PVPANIC_SHUTDOWN event. Even though a typical
SHUTDOWN event will be sent, it will be indistinguishable from a shutdown
originating from other cases (e.g. KVM exit due to KVM_SYSTEM_EVENT_SHUTDOWN)
that also issue the guest-shutdown cause.
A management layer application can detect the new GUEST_PVSHUTDOWN event to
determine if the guest is using the pvpanic interface to request shutdowns.

Shutdown requests are normally hardware dependent.
By extending pvpanic to also handle shutdown requests, guests can
submit such requests with an easily implementable and cross-platform
mechanism.

Right now, the system reset is concluded by a call to
cpu_synchronize_all_post_reset() in order to sync any changes
that the machine reset callback applied to the CPU state.
However, for VMs with encrypted state such as SEV-ES guests (currently
the only case of guests with non-resettable CPUs) this cannot be done,
because guest state has already been finalized by machine-init-done notifiers.
cpu_synchronize_all_post_reset() does nothing on these guests, and actually
we would like to make it fail if called once guest has been encrypted.
So, assume that boards that support non-resettable CPUs do not touch
CPU state and that all such setup is done before, at the time of
cpu_synchronize_all_post_init().

The Big QEMU Lock (BQL) has many names and they are confusing. The
actual QemuMutex variable is called qemu_global_mutex but it's commonly
referred to as the BQL in discussions and some code comments. The
locking APIs, however, are called qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() and
qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread().
The "iothread" name is historic and comes from when the main thread was
split into into KVM vcpu threads and the "iothread" (now called the main
loop thread). I have contributed to the confusion myself by introducing
a separate --object iothread, a separate concept unrelated to the BQL.
The "iothread" name is no longer appropriate for the BQL. Rename the
locking APIs to:
- void bql_lock(void)
- void bql_unlock(void)
- bool bql_locked(void)
There are more APIs with "iothread" in their names. Subsequent patches
will rename them. There are also comments and documentation that will be
updated in later patches.

Restoring a snapshot can break a suspended guest. Snapshots suffer from
the same suspended-state issues that affect live migration, plus they must
handle an additional problematic scenario, which is that a running vm must
remain running if it loads a suspended snapshot.
To save, the existing vm_stop call now completely stops the suspended
state. Finish with vm_resume to leave the vm in the state it had prior
to the save, correctly restoring the suspended state.
To load, if the snapshot is not suspended, then vm_stop + vm_resume
correctly handles all states, and leaves the vm in the state it had prior
to the load. However, if the snapshot is suspended, restoration is
trickier. First, call vm_resume to restore the state to suspended so the
current state matches the saved state. Then, if the pre-load state is
running, call wakeup to resume running.
Prior to these changes, the vm_stop to RUN_STATE_SAVE_VM and
RUN_STATE_RESTORE_VM did not change runstate if the current state was
suspended, but now it does, so allow these transitions.

Currently, a vm in the suspended state is not completely stopped. The VCPUs
have been paused, but the cpu clock still runs, and runstate notifiers for
the transition to stopped have not been called. This causes problems for
live migration. Stale cpu timers_state is saved to the migration stream,
causing time errors in the guest when it wakes from suspend, and state that
would have been modified by runstate notifiers is wrong.
Modify vm_stop to completely stop the vm if the current state is suspended,
transition to RUN_STATE_PAUSED, and remember that the machine was suspended.
Modify vm_start to restore the suspended state.
This affects all callers of vm_stop and vm_start, notably, the qapi stop and
cont commands:
old behavior:
RUN_STATE_SUSPENDED --> stop --> RUN_STATE_SUSPENDED
new behavior:
RUN_STATE_SUSPENDED --> stop --> RUN_STATE_PAUSED
RUN_STATE_PAUSED --> cont --> RUN_STATE_SUSPENDED
For example:
(qemu) info status
VM status: paused (suspended)
(qemu) stop
(qemu) info status
VM status: paused
(qemu) system_wakeup
Error: Unable to wake up: guest is not in suspended state
(qemu) cont
(qemu) info status
VM status: paused (suspended)
(qemu) system_wakeup
(qemu) info status
VM status: running

gdb_exit function aims to close gdb sessions and sends the exit code of
the current execution. It's being called by qemu_cleanup once the main
loop is over.
Until now, the exit code sent was always 0. Now that hardware can
shutdown this main loop with custom exit codes, these codes must be
transfered to gdb as well.
