Polling until select returns empty fdsets helps to reduce the switches
between iothread and vcpus. The benefit of this patch is best visible
when running an SMP guest on an SMP host in emulation mode.

If we call select without a timeout, it's more efficient to keep the
global mutex locked as we may otherwise just play ping pong with a
vcpu thread contending for it. This is particularly important for TCG
mode where we run in lock-step with the vcpu thread.

Added options to let qemu transfer two configuration files to bios:
"bootsplash.bmp" and "etc/boot-menu-wait", which could be specified by command
-boot splash=P,splash-time=T
P is jpg/bmp file name or an absolute path, T have a max value of 0xffff, unit
is ms. With these two options, if user invoke qemu with menu=on option, then
a splash picture would be showed in a given time. For example:
qemu -boot menu=on,splash=/root/boot.bmp,splash-time=5000
would make boot.bmp shown as a brand with 5 seconds in the booting up process.
This feature need the new seabios's support, which could be got from git.

Daniel P. Berrange sent a libvirt's patch to support
reboots with the QEMU driver. He implements it in
json model like this:
1. add -no-shutdown in the qemu's option:
qemu -no-shutdown xxxx
2. shutdown the vm by monitor command system_powerdown
3. wait for shutdown event
4. reset the vm by monitor command system_reset
no_shutdown will be reset to 0 if the vm is powered down.
We only can reboot the vm once.
If no_shutdown is not reset to 0, we can reboot the vm
many times.

BeOS and Haiku on i386 use long for 32-bit types, including pid_t.
Using %d with pid_t therefore results in a warning.
Unfortunately POSIX:2008 does not define a PRId* string for pid_t.
In some places pid_t was previously casted to long and %ld hardcoded.
The predecessor of this patch added another upcast for the simpletrace
filename but was not applied to date.
Since new uses of pid_t with %d keep creeping in, let's instead define
an OS-dependent format string and use that consistently.

Commit 85097db6 changed the timing when kvm_allowed is set until after

This option gives the ability to switch one "accelerator" like kvm, xen
or the default one tcg. We can specify more than one accelerator by
separate them by a colon. QEMU will try each one and use the first whose
works.
So,
./qemu -machine accel=xen:kvm:tcg
which would try Xen support first, then KVM and finally TCG if none of
the other works.
By default, QEMU will use TCG. But we can specify another default in the
global configuration file.

This fixes the problem when qemu continues even if -drive specification
is somehow invalid, resulting in a mess. Applicable for both current
master and for stable-0.14 (and the same issue exist 0.13 and 0.12 too).
The prob can actually be seriuos: when you start guest with two drives
and make an error in the specification of one of them, and the guest
has something like a raid array on the two drives, guest may start failing
that array or kick "missing" drives which may result in a mess - this is
what actually happened to me, I did't want a resync at all, and a resync
resulted in re-writing (and allocating) a 4TB virtual drive I used for
testing, which in turn resulted in my filesystem filling up and whole
thing failing badly. Yes it was just testing VM, I experimented with
larger raid arrays, but the end result was quite, well, unexpected.

Trace events outside the global mutex cannot be used with the simple
trace backend since it is not thread-safe. There is no check to prevent
them being enabled so people sometimes learn this the hard way.
This patch restructures the simple trace backend with a ring buffer
suitable for multiple concurrent writers. A writeout thread empties the
trace buffer when threshold fill levels are reached. Should the
writeout thread be unable to keep up with trace generation, records will
simply be dropped.
Each time events are dropped a special record is written to the trace
file indicating how many events were dropped. The event ID is
0xfffffffffffffffe and its signature is dropped(uint32_t count).
