This work is based on:
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20220317125534.38706-1-philippe.mathieu.daude@gmail.com/

Simplify the initialization dance by running qemu_init() in the main
thread before the Cocoa event loop starts. The secondary thread only
runs only qemu_main_loop() and qemu_cleanup().

This fixes a case where addRemovableDevicesMenuItems() calls
qmp_query_block() while expecting the main thread to still hold
the BQL.

Overriding the code after calling qemu_init() is done by dynamically
replacing a function pointer variable, qemu_main when initializing
ui/cocoa, which unifies the static implementation of main() for
builds with ui/cocoa and ones without ui/cocoa.

v3: Document functions involved in startup. (Peter Maydell)

v2: Restore allow_events flag to fix the crash reported by
    Philippe Mathieu-Daudé.
