From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilb...@redhat.com>
Add a qmp command that can trigger guest announcements.
It uses its own announce-timer instance, and parameters
passed to it explicitly in the command.
Like most qmp commands, it's in the main thread/bql, so
there's no racing with any outstanding timer.
Based on work of Germano Veit Michel <germ...@redhat.com> and
Vladislav Yasevich <vyase...@redhat.com>
