qapi-introspect: Hide type names

Browse source 
To eliminate the temptation for clients to look up types by name
(which are not ABI), replace all type names by meaningless strings.

Reduces output of query-schema by 13 out of 85KiB.

As a debugging aid, provide option -u to suppress the hiding.

# @SchemaInfo
#
# @name: the entity's name, inherited from @base.
# Entities defined in the QAPI schema have the name defined in
# the schema. Implicitly defined entities have generated
# names. See docs/qapi-code-gen.txt section "Client JSON
# Protocol introspection" for details.
# Commands and events have the name defined in the QAPI schema.
# Unlike command and event names, type names are not part of
# the wire ABI. Consequently, type names are meaningless
# strings here.
#
# All references to other SchemaInfo are by name.
#
# Command and event names are part of the wire ABI, but type names are
# not. Therefore, looking up a type by "well-known" name is wrong.
# Look up the command or event, then follow the references.
#
# @meta-type: the entity's meta type, inherited from @base.
#
# Additional members depend on the value of @meta-type.
