qapi: Use rST markup for literal blocks
There are exactly two places in our json doc comments where we use the markup accepted by the texi doc generator where a '|' in the first line of a doc comment means the line should be emitted as a literal block (fixed-width font, whitespace preserved). Since we use this syntax so rarely, instead of making the rST generator support it, instead just convert the two uses to rST-format literal blocks, which are indented and introduced with '::'. (The rST generator doesn't complain about the old style syntax, it just emits it with the '|' and with the whitespace not preserved, which looks odd, but means we can safely leave this change until after we've stopped generating texinfo.)
