An enum would be nicer than 'str', but your commit message is accurate.

Wow, you're not kidding about this not being typical QAPI.  Oh well.

Back to the question of if it is worth updating the QAPI generator to
allow a flat union as the branch of yet another flat union.  If we did
that, we could have (untested):

{ 'enum': 'NetfilterPosition', 'data': [ 'head', 'tail', 'id' ] }
{ 'union': 'NetfilterBase',
  'base': { 'position': 'NetfilterPosition',
            'netdev'..., 'queue', 'status'... },
  'discriminator': 'position',
  'data': { 'head': {}, 'tail': {},
            'id': { '*insert': 'NetfilterInsert', 'id': 'str' } }

but that is a change to our existing id=xyz parsing, so we may need an
alias or deprecation period...

matches net/filter-buffer.c:filter_buffer_class_init().

Matches filter-mirror.c:filter_mirror_class_init().  For the future, can
we rename to vnet-hdr-support?
