Add a special Error * that can be passed to error handling APIs to
signal that any errors are fatal and should abort QEMU. There are two
advantages to this:
- allows for brevity when wishing to assert success of Error **
accepting APIs. No need for this pattern:
Error * local_err = NULL;
api_call(foo, bar, &local_err);
assert_no_error(local_err);
This also removes the need for _nofail variants of APIs with
asserting call sites now reduced to 1LOC.
- SIGABRT happens from within the offending API. When a fatal error
occurs in an API call (when the caller is asserting sucess) failure
often means the API itself is broken. With the abort happening in the
API call now, the stack frames into the call are available at debug
time. In the assert_no_error scheme the abort happens after the fact.
The exact semantic is that when an error is raised, if the argument
Error ** matches &error_abort, then the abort occurs immediately. The
error messaged is reported.
For error_propagate, if the destination error is &error_abort, then
the abort happens at propagation time.

These functions help maintaining homogeneous formatting of error messages
with Windows error code and description (generated by
g_win32_error_message()).
