qapi: Use explicit bulleted lists

A JSON block comment like this:
     Returns: nothing on success
              If @node is not a valid block device, DeviceNotFound
              If @name is not found, GenericError with an explanation

renders like this:

     Returns: nothing on success If node is not a valid block device,
     DeviceNotFound If name is not found, GenericError with an explanation

because whitespace is not significant.

Use an actual bulleted list, so that the formatting is correct.
