Revert "qdev: Add help for property value"
This reverts commit 922910ce42d15bdb7c2347436b1b5798b5401de4.
The commit has four issues:
* When it runs from the monitor, e.g. "device_add e1000,mac=?", it
prints to stderr instead of the monitor.
* Help looks to callers just like failed device creation. This makes
main() exit unsuccessfully on "-device e1000,mac=?".
* It has an undocumented side effect on -global: "-global e1000.mac=?"
prints help, but only when we actually add an e1000 device.
* It does not work for properties that accept the value "?".
We need to do this differently.
