Reproducer: with

    { 'command': 'user_def_cmd4', 'returns': { 'a': 'int' } }

added to qapi-schema-test.json, qapi-commands.py dies when it tries to
generate the command handler function

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/work/armbru/qemu/scripts/qapi-commands.py", line 359, in <module>
        ret = generate_command_decl(cmd['command'], arglist, ret_type) + "\n"
      File "/work/armbru/qemu/scripts/qapi-commands.py", line 29, in generate_command_decl
        ret_type=c_type(ret_type), name=c_name(name),
      File "/work/armbru/qemu/scripts/qapi.py", line 927, in c_type
        assert isinstance(value, str) and value != ""
    AssertionError

because the return type doesn't exist.

Simply outlaw this usage, and drop or dumb down test cases accordingly.
