Policy is separate for input and output. Input policy can be "accept" (accept silently), or "reject" (reject the request with an error). Output policy can be "accept" (pass on unchanged), or "hide" (filter out the deprecated parts). Default is "accept". Policies other than "accept" are implemented later in this series. For now, -compat covers only syntactic aspects of QMP, i.e. stuff tagged with feature 'deprecated'. We may want to extend it to cover semantic aspects, CLI, and experimental features. The option is experimental. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> ---
