From: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lur...@redhat.com>
Hints printed with error_printf_unless_qmp() are suppressed outside
monitor context. Reproducer:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1Z
qemu-system-x86_64: -m 1Z: Parameter 'size' expects a size
Print to stderr instead. The reproducer now additionally prints:
You may use k, M, G or T suffixes for kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes and
terabytes.
