Eric Blake 949ebc3022 tests: add a comment about our fake qmp
While testing QMP, I used a simple qemu session of
'qemu-kvm -M none -nodefaults -nographic -qmp stdio'
for some experiments.  But it took me far too long to remember
the magic invocation to unlock QMP into accepting normal commands.
While I was able to grep libvirt sources and easily find where
libvirt expects the normal "QMP" greeting, I could not find the
proper reply to that greeting nearby.

Reading the testsuite didn't help either, since there we don't
emulate the mandatory handshake.  But since my grep hit the
testsuite, adding a bit of documentation will make it much easier
to jog my memory in the future.

* tests/qemumonitortestutils.c (QEMU_JSON_GREETING): Mention that
the normal counterpart reply is skipped.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
