qapi/qom: QAPIfy object-add

This converts object-add from 'gen': false to the ObjectOptions QAPI
type. As an immediate benefit, clients can now use QAPI schema
introspection for user creatable QOM objects.

It is also the first step towards making the QAPI schema the only
external interface for the creation of user creatable objects. Once all
other places (HMP and command lines of the system emulator and all
tools) go through QAPI, too, some object implementations can be
simplified because some checks (e.g. that mandatory options are set) are
already performed by QAPI, and in another step, QOM boilerplate code
could be generated from the schema.
