qjson: Have qobject_from_json() & friends reject empty and blank

The last case where qobject_from_json() & friends return null without
setting an error is empty or blank input.  Callers:

* block.c's parse_json_protocol() reports "Could not parse the JSON
  options".  It's marked as a work-around, because it also covered
  actual bugs, but they got fixed in the previous few commits.

* qobject_input_visitor_new_str() reports "JSON parse error".  Also
  marked as work-around.  The recent fixes have made this unreachable,
  because it currently gets called only for input starting with '{'.

* check-qjson.c's empty_input() and blank_input() demonstrate the
  behavior.

* The other callers are not affected since they only pass input with
  exactly one JSON value or, in the case of negative tests, one error.

Fail with "Expecting a JSON value" instead of returning null, and
simplify callers.
