 * The json: pseudo-protocol syntax in qemu allows multiple approaches to

 * in qemu and the fact that internally qemu is flattening the values using '.'.
 *
 * This allows to specify nested json strings either using nested json objects
 * or prefixing object members with the parent object name followed by the dot.
 *
 * This function will attempt to reverse the process and provide a nested json
 * hierarchy so that the parsers can be kept simple and we still can use the
 * weird syntax some users might use.
 *
 * Currently this function will flatten out just the 'file.' prefix into a new
 * tree. Any other syntax will be rejected.
