The early monitor iothread creation conflicts with the -daemonize option causing crashes at shutdown of a daemonized qemu instance. These patches will delay the creation to when a monitor using it is actually spawned, which AFAICT only happens after the os_daemonize() call.
While the second patch depends on the first one, the first is a consistency cleanup on its own, therefore split out.
