The 'skip_flush' field is set on the dummy throwaway HMP monitor object created by QMP's 'human-monitor-command', as an indication not to try to write data to the chardev. Instead the QMP command impl will grab the data straight out of the in-memory buffer.
The flag is redundant, however, as the monitor code could instead simply check the 'fe_is_open' field on the CharFrontend, which will be false in the same scenarios that 'skip_flush' is true.
