keyval: introduce keyval_merge

This patch introduces a function that merges two keyval-produced
(or keyval-like) QDicts.  It can be used to emulate the behavior of
.merge_lists = true QemuOpts groups, merging -readconfig sections and
command-line options in a single QDict, and also to implement -set.
