[RFC PATCH 00/10] hw/misc/vmcoreinfo: Convert from QDev to plain Object

No reason for vmcoreinfo to be based on QDev, since it doesn't use any QDev API. Demote to plain Object. Since we can only register one type, introduce a new one for object: 'vmcore-info' (dash separator), keeping 'vmcoreinfo' device during the deprecation period.
