[PATCH v2 6/8] chardev: add API to block use of the stdio implementation

[Daniel P. Berrangé]

When daemonizing QEMU it is not possible to use the stdio chardev
backend because the file descriptors are connected to /dev/null.
Currently the chardev checks for this scenario directly, but to
decouple it from the system emulator daemonizing code, we reverse
the relationship. Now the system emulator calls a helper to
explicitly disable use of the stdio backend.
