de253f1491 qmp: switch to the new error format on the wire
IMPORTANT: this BREAKS QMP's compatibility for the error response.

This commit changes QMP's wire protocol to make use of the simpler
error format introduced by previous commits.

There are two important (and mostly incompatible) changes:

 1. Almost all error classes have been replaced by GenericError. The
    only classes that are still supported for compatibility with
    libvirt are: CommandNotFound, DeviceNotActive, KVMMissingCap,
    DeviceNotFound and MigrationExpected

 2. The 'data' field of the error dictionary is gone

As an example, an error response like:

  { "error": { "class": "DeviceNotRemovable",
               "data": { "device": "virtio0" },
               "desc": "Device 'virtio0' is not removable" } }

Will now be emitted as:

  { "error": { "class": "GenericError",
               "desc": "Device 'virtio0' is not removable" } }

ca9567e234 QMP: Add QEMU's version to the greeting message
With capability negotiation support clients will only have a chance
to check QEMU's version (ie. issue 'query-version') after the
negotiation procedure is done.

It might be useful to clients to check QEMU's version before
negotiating features, though.

To allow that, this commit adds the QEMU's version object to the
greeting message.

Not really sure this is needed, but doesn't hurt anyway.
