[Qemu-devel] [PULL for 2.9 31/49] qapi2texi: Use category "Object" for all object types

[Markus Armbruster]

At the protocol level, the distinction between struct, flat union and
simple union is meaningless, they are all JSON objects.  Document them
that way.

Example change (qemu-qmp-ref.txt):

- -- Simple Union: InputEvent
+ -- Object: InputEvent

      Input event union.

This also fixes the completely broken headings for flat and simple
unions in qemu-qmp-ref.7 and qemu-ga-ref.7, by sidestepping a bug in
texi2pod.pl.  For instance, it mistranslates "@deftp {Simple Union}
InputEvent" to "B<Union> (Simple)", but translates "@deftp Object
InputEvent" to "B<SocketAddress> (Object)".
