While there, tighten error_append_hint()'s assertion.

The -msg timestamp=on option prepends a timestamp to error messages.
This is useful on stderr where it allows users to identify when an error
was raised.
Timestamps do not make sense on the monitor since error_report() is
called in response to a synchronous monitor command and the user already
knows "when" the command was issued. Additionally, the rest of the
monitor conversation lacks timestamps so the error timestamp cannot be
correlated with other activity.
Only prepend timestamps on stderr. This fixes libvirt's 'drive_del'
processing, which did not expect a timestamp. Other QEMU monitor
clients are probably equally confused by timestamps on monitor error
messages.

The traditional QMP command handler interface
int qmp_FOO(Monitor *mon, const QDict *params, QObject **ret_data);
doesn't provide for returning an Error object. Instead, the handler
is expected to stash it in the monitor with qerror_report().
When we rebased QMP on top of QAPI, we didn't change this interface.
Instead, commit 776574d introduced "middle mode" as a temporary aid
for converting existing QMP commands to QAPI one by one. More than
three years later, we're still using it.
Middle mode has two effects:
* Instead of the native input marshallers
static void qmp_marshal_input_FOO(QDict *, QObject **, Error **)
it generates input marshallers conforming to the traditional QMP
command handler interface.
* It suppresses generation of code to register them with
qmp_register_command()
This permits giving them internal linkage.
As long as we need qmp-commands.hx, we can't use the registry behind
qmp_register_command(), so the latter has to stay for now.
The former has to go to get rid of qerror_report(). Changing all QMP
commands to fit the QAPI mold in one go was impractical back when we
started, but by now there are just a few stragglers left:
do_qmp_capabilities(), qmp_qom_set(), qmp_qom_get(), qmp_object_add(),
qmp_netdev_add(), do_device_add().
Switch middle mode to generate native input marshallers, and adapt the
stragglers. Simplifies both the monitor code and the stragglers.
Rename do_qmp_capabilities() to qmp_capabilities(), and
do_device_add() to qmp_device_add, because that's how QMP command
handlers are named today.

monitor_printf will drop the requested output if cur_mon is qmp (for
good reason). However these messages are often helpful for debugging
issues with via libvirt.
If we know the message won't hit the monitor, send it to stderr.

[Issue]
When we offer a customer support service and a problem happens
in a customer's system, we try to understand the problem by
comparing what the customer reports with message logs of the
customer's system.
In this case, we often need to know when the problem happens.
But, currently, there is no timestamp in qemu's error messages.
Therefore, we may not be able to understand the problem based on
error messages.
[Solution]
Add a timestamp to qemu's error message logged by
error_report() with g_time_val_to_iso8601().
