Code review comment for ~paelzer/ubuntu/+source/qemu:merge-7.0-kinetic

Hi,
I wanted to open the MR early on for review of the general merge, drops and
changes. As usual more testing might identify more to add / change later, but
since this most likely represents the majority of the work we can start the
review concurrent to the builds and tests.

Pushed tags as usual for complex merges:
