The "special_features" field / parameter holds the subset of schema
features that are for internal code use. Specifically 'DEPRECATED'
and 'UNSTABLE'.
This special casing of internal features is going to be removed, so
prepare for that by renaming to 'features'. Using a fixed size type
is also best practice for bit fields.

The general expectation is that header files should follow the same
file/path naming scheme as the corresponding source file. There are
various historical exceptions to this practice in QEMU, with one of
the most notable being the include/qapi/qmp/ directory. Most of the
headers there correspond to source files in qobject/.
This patch corrects most of that inconsistency by creating
include/qobject/ and moving the headers for qobject/ there.
This also fixes MAINTAINERS for include/qapi/qmp/dispatch.h:
scripts/get_maintainer.pl now reports "QAPI" instead of "No
maintainers found".

[Rebased]
The generated visitor functions call visit_deprecated_accept() and
visit_deprecated() when visiting a struct member with special feature
flag 'deprecated'. This makes the feature flag visible to the actual
visitors. I want to make feature flag 'unstable' visible there as
well, so I can add policy for it.
To let me make it visible, replace these functions by
visit_policy_reject() and visit_policy_skip(), which take the member's
special features as an argument. Note that the new functions have the
opposite sense, i.e. the return value flips.

[Unbreak forward visitor]
This new adaptor visitor takes a single field of the adaptee, and exposes it
with a different name.
This will be used for QOM alias properties. Alias targets can of course
have a different name than the alias property itself (e.g. a machine's
pflash0 might be an alias of a property named 'drive'). When the target's
getter or setter invokes the visitor, it will use a different name than
what the caller expects, and the visitor will not be able to find it
(or will consume erroneously).
The solution is for alias getters and setters to wrap the incoming
visitor, and forward the sole field that the target is expecting while
renaming it appropriately.
