[PATCH v1] Check and report for incomplete 'global' option format

[Rohit Kumar]

Qemu might crash when provided incomplete '-global' option.
For example:
        qemu-system-x86_64 -global driver=isa-fdc
        qemu-system-x86_64: ../../devel/qemu/qapi/string-input-visitor.c:394:
        string_input_visitor_new: Assertion `str' failed.
        Aborted (core dumped)
