[PATCH RFC 1/5] qapi: Enable enum member introspection to show more than name

[Markus Armbruster <armbru@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The next commit will add feature flags to enum members.  There's a
problem, though: query-qmp-schema shows an enum type's members as an
array of member names (SchemaInfoEnum member @values).  If it showed
an array of objects with a name member, we could simply add more
members to these objects.  Since it's just strings, we can't.

I can see three ways to correct this design mistake:

1. Do it the way we should have done it, plus compatibility goo.

   We want a ['SchemaInfoEnumMember'] member in SchemaInfoEnum.  Since
   changing @values would be a compatibility break, add a new member
   @members instead.

   @values is now redundant.  We should be able to get rid of it
   eventually.

   In my testing, output of qemu-system-x86_64's query-qmp-schema
   grows by 11% (18.5KiB).

2. Like 1, but omit "boring" elements of @member, and empty @member.

   @values does not become redundant.  Output of query-qmp-schema
   grows only as we make enum members non-boring.

3. Versioned query-qmp-schema.

   query-qmp-schema provides either @values or @members.  The QMP
   client can select which version it wants.

This commit implements 1. simply because it's the solution I thought
of first.  I'm prepared to implement one of the others if we decide
that's what we want.
