[RFC,v1,1/7] qdev: Define halting API

Message ID 869b19f37ca7908ee01a84723c3c38a512b9e5c3.1362387545.git.peter.crosthwaite@xilinx.com

Define APIs on the device level for halting and un-halting a device. The
semantic is the device freezes its state and does not respond to any form
of transaction.

The main intended use cases is to implement clock gating and power down. clock
gating is just a halt, whereas power down is a reset() and halt(). Unhalt is
then used to ungate the clock or power up the device.
