Markus Armbruster 2ab218aad6 qapi: Change frontend error messages to start with lower case
Starting error messages with a capital letter complicates things when
text can get interpolated both at the beginning and in the middle of
an error message.  The next patch will do that.  Switch to lower case
to keep it simpler.

For what it's worth, the GNU Coding Standards advise the message
"should not begin with a capital letter when it follows a program name
and/or file name, because that isn’t the beginning of a sentence. (The
sentence conceptually starts at the beginning of the line.)"

While there, avoid breaking lines containing multiple arguments in the
middle of an argument.

Markus Armbruster bc52d03ff5 qapi: Make doc comments optional where we don't need them
Since we added the documentation generator in commit 3313b61, doc
comments are mandatory.  That's a very good idea for a schema that
needs to be documented, but has proven to be annoying for testing.

Make doc comments optional again, but add a new directive

    { 'pragma': { 'doc-required': true } }

to let a QAPI schema require them.

Add test cases for the new pragma directive.  While there, plug a
minor hole in includ directive test coverage.

Require documentation in the schemas we actually want documented:
qapi-schema.json and qga/qapi-schema.json.

We could probably make qapi2texi.py cope with incomplete
documentation, but for now, simply make it refuse to run unless the
schema has 'doc-required': true.
