QMP is irrelevant for user emulation. Extract the code
related to QMP in a different source file, which won't
be build for user emulation binaries. This avoid pulling
pointless code.

This should go under monitor/.

Queued all except patch 2, please resubmit that and send it to
qemu-block@nongnu.org.
