migration: Allow to suppress vmdesc submission

We now always send a JSON blob describing the migration file format as part
of the migration stream. However, some tools built around QEMU have proven
to stumble over this.

This patch gives the user the chance to disable said self-describing part of
the migration stream. To disable vmdesc submission, just add

  -machine suppress-vmdesc=on

to your QEMU command line.
