qmp-commands: fix incorrect uses of ":O" specifier
As far as the QMP parser is concerned, neither the 'O' nor the 'q' format specifiers put any constraint on the command. However, there are two differences: 1) from a documentation point of view 'O' says that this command takes a dictionary. The dictionary will be converted to QemuOpts in the handler to match the corresponding HMP command. 2) 'O' sets QMP_ACCEPT_UNKNOWNS, resulting in the command accepting invalid extra arguments. For example the following is accepted: { "execute": "send-key", "arguments": { "keys": [ { "type": "qcode", "data": "ctrl" }, { "type": "qcode", "data": "alt" }, { "type": "qcode", "data": "delete" } ], "foo": "bar" } } Neither send-key nor migrate-set-capabilities take a QemuOpts-like dictionary; they take an array of dictionaries. And neither command really wants to have extra unknown arguments. Thus, the right specifier to use in this case is 'q'; with this patch the above command fails with {"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "Invalid parameter 'foo'"}} as intended.
