qmp: introduce QMPCapability
There were no QMP capabilities defined. Define the first capability, "oob", to allow out-of-band messages. After this patch, we will allow QMP clients to enable QMP capabilities when sending the first "qmp_capabilities" command. Originally we are starting QMP session with no arguments like: { "execute": "qmp_capabilities" } Now we can enable some QMP capabilities using (take OOB as example, which is the only capability that we support): { "execute": "qmp_capabilities", "arguments": { "enable": [ "oob" ] } } When the "arguments" key is not provided, no capability is enabled. For capability "oob", the monitor needs to be run on a dedicated IO thread, otherwise the command will fail. For example, trying to enable OOB on a MUXed typed QMP monitor will fail. One thing to mention is that QMP capabilities are per-monitor, and also when the connection is closed due to some reason, the capabilities will be reset. Also, touch up qmp-test.c to test the new bits.
