qapi: Add some type check tests

Demonstrate that the qapi generator silently parses confusing
types, which may cause other errors later on. Later patches
will update the expected results as the generator is made stricter.

Most of the new tests focus on blatant errors.  But
returns-whitelist is a case where we have historically allowed
returning something other than a JSON object from particular
commands; we have to keep that behavior to avoid breaking clients,
but it would be nicer to avoid adding such commands in the future,
because any return that is not an (array of) object cannot be
easily extended if future qemu wants to return additional
information.  The QMP protocol already documents that clients
should ignore unknown dictionary keys, but does not require
clients to have to handle more than one type of JSON object.
