block: Accept device model name for x-blockdev-insert-medium
In order to remove the need for BlockBackend names in the external API, we want to allow qdev device names in all device related commands. This converts x-blockdev-insert-medium to accept a qdev device name. As the command is experimental, we can still remove the 'device' option that uses the BlockBackend name. This requires some test case changes and is left for another series. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
