Additionally to the scoreboard, we define a qemu_plugin_u64, which is a
simple struct holding a pointer to a scoreboard, and a given offset.
This allows to have a scoreboard containing structs, without having to
bring offset to operate on a specific field.
Since most of the plugins are simply collecting a sum of per-cpu values,
qemu_plugin_u64 directly support this operation as well.
All inline operations defined later will use a qemu_plugin_u64 as input.
New functions:
- qemu_plugin_u64_add
- qemu_plugin_u64_get
- qemu_plugin_u64_set
- qemu_plugin_u64_sum
New macros:
- qemu_plugin_scoreboard_u64
- qemu_plugin_scoreboard_u64_in_struct

We introduce a cpu local storage, automatically managed (and extended)
by QEMU itself. Plugin allocate a scoreboard, and don't have to deal
with how many cpus are launched.
This API will be used by new inline functions but callbacks can benefit
from this as well. This way, they can operate without a global lock for
simple operations.
At any point during execution, any scoreboard will be dimensioned with
at least qemu_plugin_num_vcpus entries.
New functions:
- qemu_plugin_scoreboard_find
- qemu_plugin_scoreboard_free
- qemu_plugin_scoreboard_new

Having the plugins grab stdout and spew stuff there is a bit ugly and
certainly makes the tests look ugly. Provide a hook back into QEMU
which can be redirected as needed.

Give the plugins access to the QEMU dissasembler so they don't have to
re-invent the wheel. We generate a warning when there are spare bytes
in the decode buffer. This is usually due to the front end loading in
more bytes than decoded.
