This switches qemu-img from a QemuOpts-based parser for --object to user_creatable_process_cmdline() which uses a keyval parser and enforces the QAPI schema.
Apart from being a cleanup, this makes non-scalar properties accessible.

Our exit status here of 2 on failure appears to be intentional (since we reserve 0 for identical, 1 for mismatch, >1 for error)...

Ouch: with current qemu.git master and none of this series applied:

Okay, that didn't do what I expected, but this does: $ ./qemu-img compare --object foo,id=1 /dev/null /dev/null qemu-img: Parameter 'id' expects an identifier Identifiers consist of letters, digits, '-', '.', '_', starting with a letter. $ echo $? 2

and this may be my confusion with gdb. Right after 'fin', *opts is not the same as *$1 (apparently gdb has stopped at a point where the 'opts' currently in scope is not the opts set by qemu_opts_parse_noisily, but before the opts in scope has actually been assigned the returned value).
That looks buggy. qemu_opts_parse_noisily() is NOT returning NULL, but rather a pointer to something garbage (that id pointing to a garbage string in the middle of qemu_trace_opts is fishy), and so we've been exiting with status 1 in spite of the code.
Looks like we'll want a separate patch fixing that first.
So I was wrong on when qemu_opts_parse_noisily() returns NULL - it does NOT reject unknown object names (that was the job of the qemu_opts_foreach call later), but merely rejects bad/duplicate ids. Thus this code was indeed giving an exit status of 2 when actually triggered correctly,

Same deal with return value. Except here we used &error_fatal (which forces an exit status of 1 rather than returning), and so never even reach the ret=2 code. Looks like we broke that in commit 334c43e2c3, where we used to pass NULL instead of &error_fatal (although that commit was in turn fixing another problem).
...and THIS spot is why my original attempt to prove that your code was causing a regression was seeing an exit status of 1, where I instead ended up proving that we already regressed.
The rest of this patch looks fine, although maybe user_creatable_process_cmdline() should be given an 'int status' parameter for specifying 1 vs. 2 (or any other non-zero value) if we intend to fix the status of qemu-img compare failures. (Thankfully, even though qemu-img check also has a variety of documented return values other than 1, at least it documented 1 as internal errors and was already using 1 for --object failures).
