From: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

Before IOThread was its own object, each virtio-blk device would create
its own internal thread.  We need to preserve this behavior for
backwards compatibility when users do not specify -device
virtio-blk-pci,iothread=<id>.

This patch changes how the internal IOThread object is created.
Previously we used the monitor object_add() function, which is really a
layering violation.  The problem is that this needs to assign a name but
we don't have a name for this internal object.

Generating names for internal objects is a pain but even worse is that
they may collide with user-defined names.

Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> suggested that the internal IOThread
object should not be named.  This way the conflict cannot happen and we
no longer need object_add().

One gotcha is that internal IOThread objects will not be listed by the
query-iothreads command since they are not named.  This is okay though
because query-iothreads is new and the internal IOThread is just for
backwards compatibility.  New users should explicitly define IOThread
objects.
