Add a standalone VNC server binary that connects to a running QEMU instance via the D-Bus display interface (org.qemu.Display1, via the bus or directly p2p). This allows serving a VNC display without compiling VNC support directly into the QEMU system emulator, and enables running the VNC server as a separate process with independent lifecycle and privilege domain. Built only when both VNC and D-Bus display support are enabled. If we wanted to have qemu -vnc disabled, and qemu-vnc built, we would need to split CONFIG_VNC. This is left as a future exercise. Current omissions include some QEMU VNC runtime features (better handled via restart), legacy options, and Windows support. Reviewed-by: Daniel P.

D-Bus VNC
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
The ``qemu-vnc`` standalone VNC server exposes a D-Bus interface for management
|
|
and monitoring of VNC connections.
|
|
|
|
The service is available on the bus under the well-known name ``org.qemu.vnc``.
|
|
Objects are exported under ``/org/qemu/Vnc1/``.
