The qapi infra is already in place for sometime now, but it doesn't support
async commands yet. However, we're accepting a combination of command + async
event on completion for commands that have to be async.

We'll eventually have a good interface for async support, but it's not likely
we'll have it for 1.1 (possible, but unlikely).

I think item 2 above is a good way to go, considering it will add a new command,
of course.
