Now that we are fully switched over to the new QMP library, move it back
over the old namespace. This is being done primarily so that we may
upload this package simply as "qemu.qmp" without introducing confusion
over whether or not "aqmp" is a new protocol or not.

The trade-off is increased confusion inside the QEMU developer
tree. Sorry!

Note: the 'private' member "_aqmp" in legacy.py also changes to "_qmp";
not out of necessity, but just to remove any traces of the "aqmp"
name.

Add "make venv" to create the pipenv-managed virtual environment that
contains our explicitly pinned dependencies.

Add "make check" to run the python linters [in the host execution
environment].

Add "make venv-check" which combines the above two: create/update the
venv, then run the linters in that explicitly managed environment.

Add "make develop" which canonizes the runes needed to get both the
linting pre-requisites (the "[devel]" part), and the editable
live-install (the "-e" part) of these python libraries.

make clean: delete miscellaneous python packaging output possibly
created by pipenv, pip, or other python packaging utilities

make distclean: delete the above, the .venv, and the editable "qemu"
package forwarder (qemu.egg-info) if there is one.

setuptools doesn't have a formal understanding of development requires,
but it has an optional feataures section. Fine; add a "devel" feature
and add the requirements to it.

To avoid duplication, we can modify pipenv to install qemu[devel]
instead. This enables us to run invocations like "pip install -e
.[devel]" and test the package on bleeding-edge packages beyond those
specified in Pipfile.lock.

Importantly, this also allows us to install the qemu development
packages in a non-networked mode: `pip3 install --no-index -e .[devel]`
will now fail if the proper development dependencies are not already
met. This can be useful for automated build scripts where fetching
network packages may be undesirable.

Add setup.cfg and setup.py, necessary for installing a package via
pip. Add a ReST document (PACKAGE.rst) explaining the basics of what
this package is for and who to contact for more information. This
document will be used as the landing page for the package on PyPI.

List the subpackages we intend to package by name instead of using
find_namespace because find_namespace will naively also packages tests,
things it finds in the dist/ folder, etc. I could not figure out how to
modify this behavior; adding allow/deny lists to setuptools kept
changing the packaged hierarchy. This works, roll with it.

I am not yet using a pyproject.toml style package manifest, because
"editable" installs are not defined (yet?) by PEP-517/518.

I consider editable installs crucial for development, though they have
(apparently) always been somewhat poorly defined.

Pip now (19.2 and later) now supports editable installs for projects
using pyproject.toml manifests, but might require the use of the
--no-use-pep517 flag, which somewhat defeats the point. Full support for
setup.py-less editable installs was not introduced until pip 21.1.1:
https://github.com/pypa/pip/pull/9547/commits/7a95720e796a5e56481c1cc20b6ce6249c50f357

For now, while the dust settles, stick with the de-facto
setup.py/setup.cfg combination supported by setuptools. It will be worth
re-evaluating this point again in the future when our supported build
platforms all ship a fairly modern pip.
