Introduce qemu_security_policy_taint() which allows unsafe (read "not very maintained") code to 'taint' QEMU security policy. The "security policy" is the @SecurityPolicy QAPI enum, composed of: - "none" (no policy, current behavior) - "warn" (display a warning when the policy is tainted, keep going) - "strict" (once tainted, exit QEMU before starting the VM) The qemu_security_policy_is_strict() helper is also provided, which will be proved useful once a VM is started (example we do not want to kill a running VM if an unsafe device is hot-added).
