qapi: Eliminate indirection through qmp_event_get_func_emit()

The qapi_event_send_FOO() functions emit events like this:

    QMPEventFuncEmit emit;

    emit = qmp_event_get_func_emit();
    if (!emit) {
        return;
    }

    qmp = qmp_event_build_dict("FOO");
    [put event arguments into @qmp...]

    emit(QAPI_EVENT_FOO, qmp);

The value of qmp_event_get_func_emit() depends only on the program:

* In qemu-system-FOO, it's always monitor_qapi_event_queue.

* In tests/test-qmp-event, it's always event_test_emit.

* In all other programs, it's always null.

This is exactly the kind of dependence the linker is supposed to
resolve; we don't actually need an indirection.

Note that things would fall apart if we linked more than one QAPI
schema into a single program: each set of qapi_event_send_FOO() uses
its own event enumeration, yet they share a single emit function.
Which takes the event enumeration as an argument.  Which one if
there's more than one?

More seriously: how does this work even now?  qemu-system-FOO wants
QAPIEvent, and passes a function taking that to
qmp_event_set_func_emit().  test-qmp-event wants test_QAPIEvent, and
passes a function taking that to qmp_event_set_func_emit().

It works by type trickery, of course:

    typedef void (*QMPEventFuncEmit)(unsigned event, QDict *dict);

    void qmp_event_set_func_emit(QMPEventFuncEmit emit);

    QMPEventFuncEmit qmp_event_get_func_emit(void);

We use unsigned instead of the enumeration type.  Relies on both
enumerations boiling down to unsigned, which happens to be true for
the compilers we use.

Clean this up as follows:

* Generate qapi_event_send_FOO() that call PREFIX_qapi_event_emit()
  instead of the value of qmp_event_set_func_emit().

* Generate a prototype for PREFIX_qapi_event_emit() into
  qapi-events.h.

* PREFIX_ is empty for qapi/qapi-schema.json, and test_ for
  tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json.  It's qga_ for
  qga/qapi-schema.json, and doc-good- for
  tests/qapi-schema/doc-good.json, but those don't define any events.

* Rename monitor_qapi_event_queue() to qapi_event_emit() instead of
  passing it to qmp_event_set_func_emit().  This takes care of
  qemu-system-FOO.

* Rename event_test_emit() to test_qapi_event_emit() instead of
  passing it to qmp_event_set_func_emit().  This takes care of
  tests/test-qmp-event.

* Add a qapi_event_emit() that does nothing to stubs/monitor.c.  This
  takes care of all other programs that link code emitting QMP events.

* Drop qmp_event_set_func_emit(), qmp_event_get_func_emit().
