This would work for current versions of qemu, but may not work in the
future (as HMP does not guarantee stable output) - parsing QMP output
would be more reliable.  Furthermore, the 'qemu-monitor-command' is
intentionally unsupported, although this particular use is safe because
it doesn't change guest state behind libvirt's back.
