qmp-commands: fix incorrect uses of ":O" specifier
As far as the QMP parser is concerned, neither the 'O' nor the 'q' format specifiers
put any constraint on the command. However, there are two differences:
1) from a documentation point of view 'O' says that this command takes
a dictionary. The dictionary will be converted to QemuOpts in the
handler to match the corresponding HMP command.
2) 'O' sets QMP_ACCEPT_UNKNOWNS, resulting in the command accepting invalid
extra arguments. For example the following is accepted:
{ "execute": "send-key",
"arguments": { "keys": [ { "type": "qcode", "data": "ctrl" },
{ "type": "qcode", "data": "alt" },
{ "type": "qcode", "data": "delete" } ], "foo": "bar" } }
Neither send-key nor migrate-set-capabilities take a QemuOpts-like
dictionary; they take an array of dictionaries. And neither command
really wants to have extra unknown arguments. Thus, the right
specifier to use in this case is 'q'; with this patch the above
command fails with
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Invalid parameter 'foo'"}}
as intended.
