The -device JSON syntax impl leaks a reference on the created DeviceState instance. As a result when you hot-unplug the device, the device_finalize method won't be called and thus it will fail to emit the required DEVICE_DELETED event.A 'json-cli' feature was previously added against the 'device_add' QMP command QAPI schema to indicated to mgmt apps that -device supported JSON syntax. Given the hotplug bug that feature flag is no unusable for its purpose, so we add a new 'json-cli-hotplug' feature to indicate the -device supports JSON without breaking hotplug.
