The function originally behaves very badly when adding properties with "[*]" suffix.
Nomnally these are used for numbering IRQ pins. In order to find the correct starting
number the function started from zero and checked for duplicates. This took incredibly
long time with large number of CPUs because number of IRQ pins on some architectures (like
ARM GICv3) gets multiplied by number of CPUs.
 The solution is to add one more property which caches last used index so that duplication
check is not repeated thousands of times. Every time an array is expanded the index is
picked up from this cache. Cache property is a uint32_t and has the original name of the
array ('name[*]') for simplicity.
 Some more improvements:
- Call object_property_add_single() instead of recursing into itself - keeps off memcmp()
check every time when its result is already known.
- Allocate name_no_array only once and not every time for every property (there can be
thousands of them)
 The modification decreases qemu startup time with 32 ARMv8 CPUs by a factor of 2 (~10 sec
vs ~20 sec).
