monitor_qmp_dispatcher_co() runs in the iohandler AioContext that is not
polled during nested event loops. The coroutine currently reschedules
itself in the main loop's qemu_aio_context AioContext, which is polled
during nested event loops. One known problem is that QMP device-add
calls drain_call_rcu(), which temporarily drops the BQL, leading to all
sorts of havoc like other vCPU threads re-entering device emulation code
while another vCPU thread is waiting in device emulation code with
aio_poll().
Paolo Bonzini suggested running non-coroutine QMP handlers in the
iohandler AioContext. This avoids trouble with nested event loops. His
original idea was to move coroutine rescheduling to
monitor_qmp_dispatch(), but I resorted to moving it to qmp_dispatch()
because we don't know if the QMP handler needs to run in coroutine
context in monitor_qmp_dispatch(). monitor_qmp_dispatch() would have
been nicer since it's associated with the monitor implementation and not
as general as qmp_dispatch(), which is also used by qemu-ga.
A number of qemu-iotests need updated .out files because the order of
QMP events vs QMP responses has changed.
Solves Issue #1933.

This member has been deprecated before the 8.1 release, in commit
34c18203d4 ("qmp: Deprecate 'singlestep' member of StatusInfo").
Time to drop it.

With bash 5.1, the output of the following script changes:
a=("double space")
a=${a[@]:0:1}
echo "$a"
from "double space" to "double space", i.e. all white space is
preserved as-is. This is probably what we actually want here (judging
from the "...to accommodate pathnames with spaces" comment), but before
5.1, we would have to quote the ${} slice to get the same behavior.
In any case, without quoting, the reference output of many iotests is
different between bash 5.1 and pre-5.1, which is not very good. The
output of 5.1 is what we want, so whatever we do to get pre-5.1 to the
same result, it means we have to fix the reference output of basically
all tests that invoke _send_qemu_cmd (except the ones that only use
single spaces in the commands they invoke).
Instead of quoting the ${} slice (cmd="${$@: 1:...}"), we can also just
not use array slicing and replace the whole thing with a simple "cmd=$1;
shift", which works because all callers quote the whole $cmd argument
anyway.

We generally include relevant HMP input in .out files, by virtue of
the fact that HMP echoes its input. But QMP does not, so we have to
explicitly inject it in the output stream (appropriately filtered to
keep the tests passing), in order to make it easier to read .out files
to see what behavior is being tested (especially true where the output
file is a sequence of {'return': {}}).

It is interesting to know whether the shutdown cause was 'quit' or
'reset', especially when using "--no-reboot". In that case, a management
layer can now determine if the guest wanted a reboot or shutdown, and
can act accordingly.
Changes the output of the reason in the iotests from 'host-qmp' to
'host-qmp-quit'. This does not break compatibility because
the field was introduced in the same version.

This makes it possible to determine what the exact reason was for
a RESET or a SHUTDOWN. A management layer might need the specific reason
of those events to determine which cleanups or other actions it needs to do.
This patch also updates the iotests to the new expected output that includes
the reason.
