Most places in .json files list just 'Since: x.y' rather than 'x.y.z',
but we aren't consistent enough to insist either way on including or
excluding a micro release number.

This is a big hammer that makes the properties non-introspectible - a
client can tell that properties will be returned, but cannot tell which
properties to expect nor what format to expect for a given property
name.  I don't know that the interface could be made easily
introspectible or not (it would probably require some QAPI unions, and a
LOT more generated code).  So it would be nice if we could explore how
hard it would be to use a type-safe representation instead of 'any',
before declaring that this is the best we can do.  Or, it may be the
sign of a bigger issue that we have no good way to introspect what qom
properties to expect, in general (and that solving that would also solve
this).
