I've posted patches in the past (qemu 2.6 timeframe, if I recall) that
changed netdev_add into a fully-advertised interface, but we didn't take
it then because we weren't sure how to handle the fact that netdev_add
can currently accept both an integer (1) and a string ("1") as
identical, and we didn't want to risk breaking clients that passed a
string when the promoted command would only accept integers.  I guess we
should revive that.

Really, we need to promote netdev_add to a full-fledged QMP command.
