This usage flag was deprecated by RFC8813, such that it is
forbidden to be present for certs using ECDSA/ECDH algorithms,
and in TLS 1.3 is conceptually obsolete.
As such many valid certs will no longer have this key usage
flag set, and QEMU should not be rejecting them, as this
prevents use of otherwise valid & desirable algorithms.

Instead of dealing with pre/post callbacks, allow devices to
implement a snapshot/restore mechanism; this has two main
advantages:
- it can be easily implemented via procedural macros
- there can be generic implementations to deal with various
kinds of interior-mutable containers, from BqlRefCell to Mutex,
so that C code does not see Rust concepts such as Mutex<>.
Using it is easy; you can implement the snapshot/restore trait
ToMigrationState and declare your state like:
regs: Migratable<Mutex<MyDeviceRegisters>>
Migratable<> allows dereferencing to the underlying object with
no run-time cost.
Note that Migratable<> actually does not accept ToMigrationState,
only the similar ToMigrationStateShared trait that the user will mostly
not care about. This is required by the fact that pre/post callbacks
take a &self, and ensures that the argument is a Mutex or BqlRefCell
(including an array or Arc<> thereof).

Starting with commit cab1398a60, SR-IOV VFs are realized as soon as
pcie_sriov_pf_init() is called. Because pcie_sriov_pf_init() must be
called before pcie_sriov_pf_init_vf_bar(), the VF BARs types won't be
known when the VF realize function calls pcie_sriov_vf_register_bar().
This breaks the memory regions of the VFs (for instance with igbvf):
$ lspci
...
Region 0: Memory at 281a00000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [virtual] [size=16K]
Region 3: Memory at 281a20000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [virtual] [size=16K]
$ info mtree
...
address-space: pci_bridge_pci_mem
0000000000000000-ffffffffffffffff (prio 0, i/o): pci_bridge_pci
0000000081a00000-0000000081a03fff (prio 1, i/o): igbvf-mmio
0000000081a20000-0000000081a23fff (prio 1, i/o): igbvf-msix
and causes MMIO accesses to fail:
Invalid write at addr 0x281A01520, size 4, region '(null)', reason: rejected
Invalid read at addr 0x281A00C40, size 4, region '(null)', reason: rejected
To fix this, VF BARs are now registered with pci_register_bar() which
has a type parameter and pcie_sriov_vf_register_bar() is removed.

- We need to have good error reporting in the callbacks in
VMStateDescription struct. Specifically pre_save, pre_load
and post_load callbacks.
- It is not possible to change these functions everywhere in one
patch, therefore, we introduce a duplicate set of callbacks
with Error object passed to them.
- So, in this commit, we implement 'errp' variants of these callbacks,
introducing an explicit Error object parameter.
- This is a functional step towards transitioning the entire codebase
to the new error-parameterized functions.
- Deliberately called in mutual exclusion from their counterparts,
to prevent conflicts during the transition.
- New impls should preferentally use 'errp' variants of
these methods, and existing impls incrementally converted.
The variants without 'errp' are intended to be removed
once all usage is converted.

QEMU's AI generated content policy does not flesh out the exception
process yet. Do it, while at the same time keeping things informal: ask
contributors to explain what they would like to use AI for, and let them
reach a consensus with the project on why it is credible to claim DCO
compliance in that specific scenario.
In other words, exceptions do not "solve the AI copyright problem". They
take a position that a reasonable contributor could have, and assert that
we're comfortable with the argument.

The AI policy in QEMU is not about content generators, it is about generated
content. Other uses are explicitly not covered. Rename the policy and clarify
its scope in the TL;DR section, as a matter of convenience to the reader.
