monitor: Command-line flag to enable control mode

This commit adds a flag called 'control' to the '-monitor'
command-line option. This flag enables control mode.

The syntax is:

qemu [...] -monitor control,<device>

Where <device> is a chardev (excluding 'vc', for obvious reasons).

For example:

$ qemu [...] -monitor control,tcp:localhost:4444,server

Will run QEMU in control mode, waiting for a client TCP connection
on localhost port 4444.

NOTE: I've tried using QemuOpts for this, but turns out that it
will try to parse the device part, which should be untouched.
