manual: escape backslashes in "parsed-literal" blocks
According to <https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/directives.html#parsed-literal>, "inline markup is recognized and there is no protection from parsing. Backslash-escapes may be necessary to prevent unintended parsing". The qemu(1) manual page (formatted with Sphinx 2.2.2) has several overlong lines on my system. A stand-alone backslash at EOL serves as line continuation in a "parsed-literal" block. Therefore, escape the backslashes that we want to appear as such in the formatted documentation.
