Zero @length is rejected with "Invalid parameter 'length'". Improve
to "parameter 'length' expects a non-zero length".
qemu_open_old() is a wrapper around qemu_open_internal() that throws
away error information. Switch to the wrapper that doesn't:
qemu_create(). Example improvement:
(qemu) dump-guest-memory /dev/fdset/x 0 1
Error: Could not open '/dev/fdset/x': Invalid argument
becomes
Error: Could not parse fdset /dev/fdset/x
@protocol values not starting with "fd:" or "file:" are rejected with
"Invalid parameter 'protocol'". Improve to "parameter 'protocol' must
start with 'file:' or 'fd:'".
While there, make the conditional checking @protocol a little more
obvious.
