qmp: Fix design bug and read beyond buffer in memchar-write

Command memchar-write takes data and size parameter.  Begs the
question what happens when data doesn't match size.

With format base64, qmp_memchar_write() copies the full data argument,
regardless of size argument.

With format utf8, qmp_memchar_write() copies size bytes from data,
happily reading beyond data.  Copies crap from the heap or even
crashes.

Drop the size parameter, and always copy the full data argument.
