Kevin Wolf 99b1e64688 qemu-img: Use user_creatable_process_cmdline() for --object
This switches qemu-img from a QemuOpts-based parser for --object to
user_creatable_process_cmdline() which uses a keyval parser and enforces
the QAPI schema.

Apart from being a cleanup, this makes non-scalar properties accessible.

As a side effect, fix wrong exit codes in the object parsing error path
of 'qemu-img compare'. This was broken in commit 334c43e2c3 because
&error_fatal exits with an exit code of 1, while it should have been 2.

Document that exit code 0 is also returned when just requested help was
printed instead of comparing images. This is preexisting behaviour that
isn't changed by this patch, though another instance of it is added with
'--object help'.
