We should serialize numbers to JSON so that they deserialize back to
the same number. We fail to do so.
The culprit is qnum_to_string(): it uses format %f with trailing '0'
trimmed. Results in pretty output for "nice" numbers, but is prone to
nasty rounding errors. For instance, numbers between 0 and 0.0000005
get flushed to zero.
Where exactly the incorrect rounding can bite is tiresome to gauge.
Here's my take.
* In QMP output, type 'number':
- query-blockstats value avg_rd_queue_depth
- QMP query-migrate values mbps, cache-miss-rate, encoding-rate,
busy-rate, compression-rate.
Relatively harmless, I guess.
* In tracing QMP input. Harmless.
* In qemu-ga output, type 'number': guest-get-users value login-time.
Harmless.
* In output of HMP qom-get. Harmless.
Not affected, because double values don't actually occur there (I
think):
* QMP output, type 'any':
* qom-get value
* qom-list, qom-list-properties value default-value
* query-cpu-model-comparison, query-cpu-model-baseline,
query-cpu-model-expansion value props.
* qemu-img --output json output.
* "json:" pseudo-filenames generated by bdrv_refresh_filename().
* The rbd block driver's "=keyvalue-pairs" hack.
* In -object help on property default values. Aside: use of JSON
feels inappropriate here.
* Output of HMP qom-get.
* Argument conversion to QemuOpts for qdev_device_add() and HMP with
qemu_opts_from_qdict()
QMP and HMP device_add, virtio-net failover primary creation,
xen-usb "usb-host" creation, HMP netdev_add, object_add.
* The uses of qobject_input_visitor_new_flat_confused()
As far as I can tell, none of the visited types contain double
values.
* Dumping ImageInfoSpecific with dump_qobject()
Fix by formatting with %.17g. 17 decimal digits always suffice for
IEEE double.
The change to expected test output illustrates the effect: the
rounding errors are gone, but some seemingly "nice" numbers now get
converted to not so nice strings, e.g. 0.42 to "0.41999999999999998".
This is because 0.42 is not representable exactly in double. It's
more accurate in this example than strictly necessary, though.
If ugly accuracy bothers us, we can we can try using the least number
of digits that still converts back to the same double. In this
example, "0.42" would do.

qnum_to_string() has a FIXME comment about rounding errors due to
insufficient precision. Cover it: 2.718281828459045 gets converted to
"2.718282". The next commit will fix it.

Now that we can safely call QOBJECT() on QObject * as well as its
subtypes, we can have macros qobject_ref() / qobject_unref() that work
everywhere instead of having to use QINCREF() / QDECREF() for QObject
and qobject_incref() / qobject_decref() for its subtypes.
The replacement is mechanical, except I broke a long line, and added a
cast in monitor_qmp_cleanup_req_queue_locked(). Unlike
qobject_decref(), qobject_unref() doesn't accept void *.
Note that the new macros evaluate their argument exactly once, thus no
need to shout them.

This cleanup makes the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h
drop from 1910 (out of 4743) to 1612 in my "build everything" tree.
While there, separate #include from file comment with a blank line,
and drop a useless comment on why qemu/osdep.h is included first.

We would like to use a same QObject type to represent numbers, whether
they are int, uint, or floats. Getters will allow some compatibility
between the various types if the number fits other representations.
Add a few more tests while at it.
