qapi: Improve input_type_enum()'s error message
The error message claims the parameter is invalid:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -object qom-type=nonexistent
qemu-system-x86_64: -object qom-type=nonexistent: Invalid parameter 'nonexistent'
What's wrong is actually the *value* 'nonexistent'. Improve the
message to
qemu-system-x86_64: -object qom-type=nonexistent: Parameter 'qom-type' does not accept value 'nonexistent'
Fixes: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/608
