qapi: Document flaws in checking of names 

We don't actually enforce our "other than downstream extensions [...],
all names should begin with a letter" rule.  Add a FIXME.

We should reject names that differ only in '_' vs. '.'  vs. '-',
because they're liable to clash in generated C.  Add a FIXME.
