[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC v5 18/32] qapi: Replace dirty is_c_ptr() by method c_null()

[Markus Armbruster]

is_c_ptr() looks whether the end of the C text for the type looks like
a pointer.  Works, but is fragile.

We now have a better tool: use QAPISchemaType method c_null().  The
initializers for non-pointers become prettier: 0, false or the
enumeration constant with the value 0 instead of {0}.
