[PATCH v7 07/65] qapi: add QAPITypeInfo struct definition

[Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Introduce a minimal struct that pairs a QAPI type's internal name with
its "masked" introspection name. Generated constants of this type will
let QOM property registration carry a reliable reference to the QAPI
schema and possibly other associated data.

The fields are populated in following commits.

+ * QAPITypeInfo - QAPI type metadata
+ *
+ * @name: QAPI type name (e.g. "str", "OnOffAuto", "int32List").
+ *        QOM uses this as the property type string.
+ * @masked_name: Name of the type in the QAPI introspection schema, assigned by
+ *        scripts/qapi code generator (e.g. "368").
+ * @lookup: QEnumLookup for this type, or NULL for non-enum types.
+ *        visit_type_enum(), qapi_enum_parse(), and qapi_enum_lookup()
+ *        all rely on it.
+ * @list: The list-type counterpart, or NULL if none exists.
+ *        str_type_info.list points to strList_type_info.  qdev array
+ *        properties follow this to find the list type for their element.
