This patch introduces 'info replay' monitor command and
corresponding qmp request.
These commands request the current record/replay mode, replay log file name,
and the execution step (number or recorded/replayed instructions).
User may use step number for replay_seek/replay_break commands and
for controlling the execution of replay.

v2:
 - renamed info_replay qmp into query-replay (suggested by Eric Blake)
v7:
 - added empty line (suggested by Markus Armbruster)

@filename is optional.  For each ReplayMode: is @filename always absent,
always present, or can it be either?

You've used "parameters of the record/replay" (in HMP help info),
"status of the record/replay mode" (QMP ReplayInfo doc), "the status of
the execution record/replay" (QMP query-replay doc), and "structure with
the properties of the record/replay".  Please pick one.  I think I'd
pick "record/replay information".

In my (superficial) review of v6, I asked what a client would do with
@step.  You gave two use cases:

 1. Control current step to be sure that replay is not stalled due to the bug.
 2. Requesting the step for some moment of execution to use it as a parameter
    of replay_seek/replay_break operations. I.e., for returning to the same
    point later.

The first one is a bit vague.  The second one sounds plausible enough to
me at least for stopped VMs (for running VMs, it feels too imprecise to
be useful, but what do I know).  replay-break is in PATCH 11,
replay-seek in PATCH 12.  Would it make sense add a suitable reference
to ReplayInfo's documentation then?

At the end of this series, record/replay takes almost 100 non-blank
lines in misc.json.  Let's create a separate QAPI schema module
qapi/replay.json, so we can have MAINTAINERS cover this stuff properly.
