qapi: Drop support for inline nested types
A future patch will be using a 'name':{dictionary} entry in the QAPI schema to specify a default value for an optional argument (see previous commit messages for more details why); but existing use of inline nested structs conflicts with that goal. Now that all commands have been changed to avoid inline nested structs, nuke support for them, and turn it into a hard error. Update the testsuite to reflect tighter parsing rules.
