The value of key 'arguments' must be a JSON object.  qemu-ga neglects
to check, and crashes.  To reproduce, send

    { 'execute': 'guest-sync', 'arguments': [] }

to qemu-ga.

do_qmp_dispatch() uses qdict_get_qdict() to get the arguments.  When
not a JSON object, this gets a null pointer, which flows through the
generated marshalling function to qobject_input_visitor_new(), where
it fails the assertion.  qmp_dispatch_check_obj() needs to catch this
error.

QEMU isn't affected, because it runs qmp_check_input_obj() first,
which basically duplicates qmp_dispatch_check_obj()'s checks, plus the
missing one.

Fix by copying the missing one from qmp_check_input_obj() to
qmp_dispatch_check_obj().
