Caller of visit_type_unit_suffixed_int() will have to specify
value of 'K' suffix via unit argument.
For Kbytes it's 1024, for Khz it's 1000.

 v2:
  - convert type_freq to type_unit_suffixed_int.
  - provide qapi_dealloc_type_unit_suffixed_int() impl.

I just noticed that strtosz_suffix_unit() is not as generic as I
expected: it interprets "100B" as "100", but the value we're reading may
be completely unrelated to byte counts.

It would be nice to fix this later, but the current interface/behavior
doesn't seem to break anything (as the k/M/G/T cases seem to work
properly), and it even matches the current frequency parsing code on
target-i386/cpu.c, so:

Indentation is one off.

Are we expecting differently suffixed ints? Otherwise we could
optionally shorten to type_suffixed_int (but that probably still doesn't
fit within one comment line ;)).

Weird indentation remaining, looks as if we could align with errp within
80 chars.

However, I wonder if "unit" is the (physically etc.) correct term here?
Isn't the "unit" Hz / byte / ... and 1000 more of a conversion factor or
something? At least that's the way I've seen unit used in the API of
another project, passing an enum of Hertz, gram, meter/second, etc.

I also think that calling it "unit" is confusing. Strictly speaking, the
"unit" we're dealing with is Hz (and the visitor simply don't care about
unit, it only looks for "unit prefixes").

Can't we call the 1000/1024 parameter "base" or "factor", instead?

Not with current implementation. I'll shorten it as you've suggested.

If we are to generalize it to integer than units might not make much sense,
they could be anything. Perhaps 'suffix_factor' would be descriptive enough
+ adding documentation comment to the visitor.

The real distinction I think is base=2 vs. base=10, but that might cause
confusion WRT to how the numberical value should be intepreted (10==2
vs. 10==10), so maybe suffix_base==2|10, or suffix_factor==1000/1024 as you
suggested. I think I'd prefer the former but either works for me.
