Ideally, we'd also want to use the opaque parameter of each -add-fd call, so that when we later use QMP commands to query what fdsets exist, the opaque parameter can tell us what filenames we passed in (it makes bookkeeping easier if you know that fd 5 was tied to /dev/tpm, compared to just knowing that it is an open fd but not what it came from).
