qapi: Track simple union tag in object.local_members

We were previously creating all unions with an empty list for
local_members.  However, it will make it easier to unify struct
and union generation if we include the generated tag member in
local_members.  That way, we can have a common code pattern:
visit the base (if any), visit the local members (if any), visit
the variants (if any).  The local_members of a flat union
remains empty (because the discriminator is already visited as
part of the base).  Then, by visiting tag_member.check() during
AlternateType.check(), we no longer need to call it during
Variants.check().

The various front end entities now exist as follows:
struct: optional base, optional local_members, no variants
simple union: no base, one-element local_members, variants with tag_member
  from local_members
flat union: base, no local_members, variants with tag_member from base
alternate: no base, no local_members, variants

With the new local members, we require a bit of finesse to
avoid assertions in the clients.

No change to generated code.
