This allows to restrict partial matches to objects of the expected
type. It will let people use bare names to reference drives
even though their name might be the same as a device's (e.g.
-drive id=hd0,if=none,... -device ...,drive=hd0,id=hd0).
As a useful byproduct, this fixes a problem with links of interface
type. When a link property's type is an interface, the code expects
the implementation object (not the parent object) to be stored in the
variable. The parent object does not contain the right vtable.
