Commit 19bcc4bc3213 ("fw_cfg: Make qemu_extra_params_fw locally",
2019-01-04) changed the storage duration of the "qemu_extra_params_fw"
array from static to automatic. This broke the interface contract on the
fw_cfg_add_file() function, which is documented as follows, in
"include/hw/nvram/fw_cfg.h":

> [...] The data referenced by the starting pointer is only linked, NOT
> copied, into the data structure of the fw_cfg device. [...]

As a result, when guest firmware fetches the "etc/boot-menu-wait" fw_cfg
file, it now sees garbage. Fix the regression by changing the storage
duration to allocated. (The call is reached at most once, on the realize
path of the board-specific fw_cfg sysbus device.)

While at it, clean up the name and the assignment of the object as well.

Oh my fault.

So I think my patch:

is useful to write this file entry test cases

Hopefully you catched this in time. This also demonstrate my testing is
poor. This will be improved.

I had a similar patch staged using the ldst API, however using the
cpu_to API is more consistent with the rest of this file.

Using the heap and not worrying about releasing it is also consistent
with the rest of this file, so:
