Monitor: Introduce the qmp-commands.hx file
This file contains a copy of the following information from the qemu-monitor.hx file: o QObject handlers entries o QMP documentation (all SQMP/EQMP sections) Right now it's only used to generate the QMP docs in QMP/, but next commits will turn this into QMP's command dispatch table. It's important to note that QObject handlers entries are going to get duplicated: they will exist in both QMP's and HMP's dispatch tables. This will be fixed in the near future, when we add a proper QMP call interface and HMP is converted to use it. This way we can completely drop QObject handlers entries from HMP's tables. NOTE: HMP specific constructions, like "q|quit", have been dropped. Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com>

+ QMP Supported Commands
+ ----------------------
+
+This document describes all commands currently supported by QMP.
+
+Most of the time their usage is exactly the same as in the user Monitor, this
+means that any other document which also describe commands (the manpage,
+QEMU's manual, etc) can and should be consulted.
+
+QMP has two types of commands: regular and query commands. Regular commands
+usually change the Virtual Machine's state someway, while query commands just
+return information. The sections below are divided accordingly.
+
+It's important to observe that all communication examples are formatted in
+a reader-friendly way, so that they're easier to understand. However, in real
+protocol usage, they're emitted as a single line.
+
+Also, the following notation is used to denote data flow:
+
+-> data issued by the Client
+<- Server data response
+
+Please, refer to the QMP specification (QMP/qmp-spec.txt) for detailed
+information on the Server command and response formats.
+
+NOTE: This document is temporary and will be replaced soon.
+
+1. Stability Considerations
+===========================
+
+The current QMP command set (described in this file) may be useful for a
+number of use cases, however it's limited and several commands have bad
+defined semantics, specially with regard to command completion.
+
+These problems are going to be solved incrementally in the next QEMU releases
+and we're going to establish a deprecation policy for badly defined commands.
+
+If you're planning to adopt QMP, please observe the following:
+
+ 1. The deprecation policy will take efect and be documented soon, please
+ check the documentation of each used command as soon as a new release of
+ QEMU is available
+
+ 2. DO NOT rely on anything which is not explicit documented
+
+ 3. Errors, in special, are not documented. Applications should NOT check
+ for specific errors classes or data (it's strongly recommended to only
+ check for the "error" key)
+
+2. Regular Commands
+===================
+
+Server's responses in the examples below are always a success response, please
+refer to the QMP specification for more details on error responses.
