qapi-visit: Remove redundant functions for flat union base

The code for visiting the base class of a child struct created
visit_type_Base_fields() which covers all fields of Base; while
the code for visiting the base class of a flat union created
visit_type_Union_fields() covering all fields of the base
except the discriminator.  But since the base class includes
the discriminator of a flat union, we can just visit the entire
base, without needing a separate visit of the discriminator.
Not only is consistently visiting all fields easier to
understand, it lets us share code.

The generated code in qapi-visit.c loses several now-unused
visit_type_UNION_fields(), along with changes like:

|@@ -1654,11 +1557,7 @@ void visit_type_BlockdevOptions(Visitor
|     if (!*obj) {
|         goto out_obj;
|     }
|-    visit_type_BlockdevOptions_fields(v, obj, &err);
|-    if (err) {
|-        goto out_obj;
|-    }
|-    visit_type_BlockdevDriver(v, &(*obj)->driver, "driver", &err);
|+    visit_type_BlockdevOptionsBase_fields(v, (BlockdevOptionsBase **)obj, &err);
|     if (err) {
|         goto out_obj;
|     }

and forward declarations where needed.  Note that the cast of obj
to BASE ** is necessary to call visit_type_BASE_fields() (and we
can't use our upcast wrappers, because those work on pointers while
we have a pointer-to-pointer).
