monitor: add object-add (QMP) and object_add (HMP) command

Add two commands that are the monitor counterparts of -object.  The commands
have the same Visitor-based implementation, but use different kinds of
visitors so that the HMP command has a DWIM string-based syntax, while
the QMP variant accepts a stricter JSON-based properties dictionary.
