This is a dynamic casting macro that, given a QObject type, returns an
object as that type or NULL if the object is of a different type (or
NULL itself).
The macro uses lower-case letters because:
1. There does not seem to be a hard rule on whether qemu macros have to
be upper-cased,
2. The current situation in qapi/qmp is inconsistent (compare e.g.
QINCREF() vs. qdict_put()),
3. qobject_to() will evaluate its @obj parameter only once, thus it is
generally not important to the caller whether it is a macro or not,
4. I prefer it aesthetically.
The macro parameter order is chosen with typename first for
consistency with other QAPI macros like QAPI_CLONE(), as well as
for legibility (read it as "qobject to" type "applied to" obj).
