Monitor: Convert do_migrate() to cmd_new_ret()

While there I'm also dropping a unneeded else clause (the last
one in the function).

Monitor: Convert simple handlers to cmd_new_ret()

The following handlers always succeed and hence can be converted
to cmd_new_ret() in the same commit.

- do_stop()
- do_quit()
- do_system_reset()
- do_system_powerdown()
- do_migrate_cancel()
- do_qmp_capabilities()...

Revert "monitor: Convert do_migrate_set_speed() to QObject"

This reverts commit 3a4921047d514c336531c304bec362c4d138ebcc.

From Luiz:

do_migrate_set_speed() accepts a suffix for the 'value' argument and this is
not good for QMP. We will have to add a new argument type to handle that and...

migration: Convert do_info_migrate() to QObject

Return a QDict, which may contain up to more two QDicts, depending
on the type of migration we're performing.

IMPORTANT: as a QInt stores a int64_t integer, RAM values are going
to be stored as int64_t and not as uint64_t as they are today. If...

live migration: Propagate output monitor to callback handler

In order to allow proper progress reporting to the monitor that
initiated the migration, forward the monitor reference through the
migration layer down to SaveLiveStateHandler.

Block live migration

This patch introduces block migration called during live migration. Block
are being copied to the destination in an async way. First the code will
transfer the whole disk and then transfer all dirty blocks accumulted during
the migration....

Error is still directly printed, as we are only converting

Migration via unix sockets.

Implement migration via unix sockets. While you can fake this using
exec and netcat, this involves forking another process and is
generally not very nice. By doing this directly in qemu, we can avoid
the copy through the external nc command. This is useful for...

set migration max downtime

provide a monitor command to allow one to set the maximum
downtime he is willing to suffer during migration, in seconds.
"ms", "us", "ns" and "s" are accepted as modifiers.

This parameter will be used by ram_save_live() code to determine...

add non-arbitrary migration stop condition

Currently, we're entering migration's stage 3 when
a treshold of 10 pages remain to be transferred in the system.

This has hurt some users. However, any proposed threshold is
arbitrary by nature, and would only shift the annoyance....

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...

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