I assume $QOM_TYPE stands for the class's name.

What kind of type does this define?  Peeking at the code below... looks
like it's a struct type.

I wonder how it's related to the the type we already use or create for
the the class's 'config' member.  Which is either the name of a struct
or union type to use, or a dictionary that tells us what struct type to
create.  Let's see below.

A copy that's somewhere between shallow and deep.  Reserving judgement.

Have you considered defaulting ._config_type_name to 'q_empty'?

@members is the list of common members of the class's and all its
parents' 'config' types.

Any variant members of 'config' types get silently ignored.  Should we
reject them instead?

The "full config type" inherits conditional and features from the class.
Its (common) members are the members of the class's and all its parents'
'config' types.

Could we use the parent's full config type as the base type here?

Do we need the non-full config type (the type named by or implicitly
defined by the 'config' member') for anything other than a source of
local members for the full config type?

New constraint: must call .get_qom_config_type() before .check().

This side effect makes me unsure sure about the "get" in the name.
Let's worry about that later.

Brain cramp.

Either use a generator expression

           classes = (c for c in self._entity_list if ... )
           for c in classes:

Or do it the old-fashioned way

           for ent in self._entity_list:
               if isinstance(ent, QAPISchemaClass):
