QMP: Drop DEBUG event

This event has been introduced in the first round of QMP commits,
turns out that it's based on the usage of the EXCP_DEBUG macro,
which has discussable semantics when exposed through QMP.

As libvirt doesn't use this, let's just drop it....

New API for asynchronous monitor commands

Qemu has a number of commands that can operate asynchronously (savevm, migrate,
etc) and it will be getting more. For these commands, the user monitor needs
to be suspended, but QMP monitors could continue to to accept other commands....

QMP: Asynchronous events infrastructure

Asynchronous events are generated with a call to
monitor_protocol_event().

This function builds the right data-type and emit the event
right away. The emitted data is always a JSON object and its
format is as follows:...

monitor: Introduce MONITOR_USE_CONTROL flag

This flag will be set when Monitor enters "control mode", in
which the output will be defined by the QEMU Monitor Protocol.

This also introduces a macro to check if the flag is set.

monitor: Command-line flag to enable control mode

This commit adds a flag called 'control' to the '-monitor'
command-line option. This flag enables control mode.

The syntax is:

qemu [...] -monitor control,<device>

monitor: Introduce MONITOR_USE_READLINE flag (Jan Kiszka)

This allows to create monitor terminals that do not make use of the
interactive readline back-end but rather send complete commands. The
pass-through monitor interface of the gdbstub will be an example....

monitor: Decouple terminals (Jan Kiszka)

Currently all registered (and activate) monitor terminals work in
broadcast mode: Everyone sees what someone else types on some other
terminal and what the monitor reports back. This model is broken when
you have a management monitor terminal that is automatically operated...

monitor: Drop banner hiding (Jan Kiszka)

There is no use for the hide/show banner option, and it is applied
inconsistently anyway (or what makes the difference between
-serial mon:stdio and -nographic for the monitor?). So drop this mode.

term_print functions are renamed to monitor_* and all monitor services
gain a new parameter (mon) that will once refer to the monitor instance
