If a receiver returns zero, that means its queue is full and it will
notify us when room is available using qemu_flush_queued_packets().
Take note of that and disable that receiver until it flushes its queue.
This is a first step towards allowing can_receive() handlers to return
true even if no buffer space is available.

For NICs, net_init_client() returns the index into the NICInfo table.
qemu_opts_foreach() interprets non-zero as an error return an stops
iterating over the options.
So, if you have more than one '-net nic' on the command line, subsequent
'-net' options do not get processed.
Fix this by making net_client_init() only return non-zero if
net_init_client() returns an error.

Diagnostic output goes to stderr, except when we're in a monitor
command, when it goes to the monitor instead.
config_error() implements this with a monitor argument: if it's
non-null, report there, else to stderr. This obliges us to pass the
monitor down various call chains, to make it available to
config_error().
The recently created qemu_error() doesn't need a monitor argument to
route output. Use it.
There's one user-visible difference: config_error() prepended "qemu: "
to a message bound for stderr. qemu_error() doesn't, which means the
prefix goes away with this commit. If such a prefix is desired for
stderr, then I figure it should be slapped on all error messages, not
just the ones that used to go through config_error().

Propagating errors up the call chain is tedious. In startup code, we
can take a shortcut: terminate the program. This is wrong elsewhere,
the monitor in particular.
config_error() tries to cater for both customers: it terminates the
program unless its mon parameter tells it it's working for the
monitor.
Its users need to return status anyway (unless passing a null mon
argument, which none do), which their users need to check. So this
automatic exit buys us exactly nothing useful. Only the dangerous
delusion that we can get away without returning status. Some of its
users fell for that. Their callers continue executing after failure
when working for the monitor.
This bites monitor command host_net_add in two places:
* net_slirp_init() continues after slirp_hostfwd(), slirp_guestfwd(),
or slirp_smb() failed, and may end up reporting success. This
happens for "host_net_add user guestfwd=foo": it complains about the
invalid guest forwarding rule, then happily creates the user network
without guest forwarding.
* net_client_init() can't detect slirp_guestfwd() failure, and gets
fooled by net_slirp_init() lying about success. Suppresses its
"Could not initialize device" message.
Add the missing error reporting, make sure errors are checked, and
drop the exit() from config_error().

net_slirp_init() walks slirp_configs, and stops when it encounters one
that doesn't work. Instead of consuming slirp_configs members there,
consume them in the sole caller. This makes sure all are consumed.
Before, the tail starting with the non-working one was left in place,
where it made the next net_slirp_init() fail again.
