All the functions will be implemented in later patches.

This patch includes the API that libxl can use to send QMP commands to
QEMU.

Notes:
    v6:
        use libxl_domid type for domid instead of plain uin32_t
        avoid the work "chained", rewrite the paragraph about sending one
            cmd after another
        Rewrite the comment about the callback, and explain that on error,
            the `ev` may be Idle or may still be Connected
        Change the carefd to a simple int (field cfd -> fd)
    
    v5:
        some changes in the comment

+/*
+ * QMP asynchronous calls
+ *
+ * This facility allows a command to be sent to QEMU, and the response
+ * to be handed to a callback function.
+ *
+ * Commands can be submited one after an other with the same
+ * connection (e.g. the result from the "add-fd" command need to be
+ * use in a follow-up command before disconnecting from QMP). A
+ * libxl__ev_qmp can be reused when the callback is been called in
+ * order to use the same connection.
+ *
+ * Only one connection at a time can be made to one QEMU, so avoid
+ * keeping a libxl__ev_qmp Connected for to long and call
+ * libxl__ev_qmp_dispose as soon as it is not needed anymore.
+ *
+ * Possible states of a libxl__ev_qmp:
+ *  Undefined
+ *    Might contain anything.
+ *  Idle
+ *    Struct contents are defined enough to pass to any
+ *    libxl__ev_qmp_* function.
+ *    The struct does not contain references to any allocated private
+ *    resources so can be thrown away.
+ *  Active
+ *    Currently waiting for the callback to be called.
+ *    _dispose must be called to reclaim resources.
+ *  Connected
+ *    Struct contain allocated ressources.
+ *    Calling _send() with this same ev will use the same QMP connection.
+ *    _dispose() must be called to reclaim resources.
+ *
+ * libxl__ev_qmp_init: Undefined/Idle -> Idle
+ *
+ * libxl__ev_qmp_send: Idle/Connected -> Active (on error: Idle)
+ *    Sends a command to QEMU.
+ *    callback will be called when a response is received or when an
+ *    error as occured.
+ *
+ * libxl__ev_qmp_dispose: Connected/Active/Idle -> Idle
+ *
+ * callback: When called: Active -> Connected (on error: Idle/Connected)
+ *    When called, ev is Connected and can be reused or disposed of.
+ *    On error, the callback is called with response == NULL and the
+ *    error code in rc. The new state of ev depending on the value of rc:
+ *    - rc == ERROR_QMP_*: This is an error associated with the cmd to
+ *      run, ev is Connected.
+ *    - otherwise: An other error happend, ev is now Idle.
+ *    The callback is only called once.
