This patch series introduces support for the Multi-Core Debug (MCD) API, a
commonly used debug interface by emulators. The MCD API, defined through a
header file, consists of 54 functions for implementing debug and trace.
However, since it is a header-file-only interface, MCD does not specify a
communication protocol. We get around this limitation by following a remote
procedure call approach using QMP. The client stub corresponding to this
implementation can be found at https://gitlab.com/lauterbach/mcdrefsrv

This series is the successor to:
"[PATCH v5 00/18] first version of mcdstub"
(https://patchew.org/QEMU/20231220162555.19545-1-nicolas.eder@lauterbach.com/)

* Architecture-independent MCD implementation
* QMP instead of custom TCP protocol

qemu-system-<arch> [options] -qmp tcp::1235,server=on,wait=off

* Architecture-independent QTest test suite

V=1 QTEST_QEMU_BINARY="./qemu-system-<arch> [options]" tests/qtest/mcd-test

* Architecture-specific tests can be found at the client stub
