monitor: new parameter "x-oob"
Add new parameter to optionally enable Out-Of-Band for a QMP server. An example command line: ./qemu-system-x86_64 -chardev stdio,id=char0 \ -mon chardev=char0,mode=control,x-oob=on By default, Out-Of-Band is off. It is not allowed if either MUX or non-QMP is detected, since Out-Of-Band is currently only for QMP, and non-MUX chardev backends. Note that the client STILL has to request 'oob' during qmp_capabilities; in part because the x-oob command line option may disappear in the future if we decide the capabilities negotiation is sufficient.
