We need to make up our mind how to call a QemuOpts option's key=value
part.  qemu-options.c (actually qerror.h, which I still haven't killed
off) calls it "parameter", to avoid confusion with the entire option,
i.e. the -opt key=value,...

The error reporting lazy here: you get the same message for a missing fd
as for a negative fd, because the programmer couldn't be bothered to
detect the difference.  Not this patch's problem.

As in PATCH 07, I'd prefer the phrasing with the verb.  More of the same
below.

Of course, the error message is crap either way.  "The order you gave is
invalid (but I'm not telling you why), or it clashes with some other
order I got (but I'm not telling you which one).  Pffft.  Not this
patch's problem.

Lazy again.
