Let me elaborate, to make sure I got it.

Before the QAPI conversion, sendkey used get_keycode() to convert key
substrings to integer key codes.  Source code:

    static int get_keycode(const char *key)
    {
        const KeyDef *p;
        char *endp;
        int ret;

        for(p = key_defs; p->name != NULL; p++) {
            if (!strcmp(key, p->name))
                return p->keycode;
        }
        if (strstart(key, "0x", NULL)) {
            ret = strtoul(key, &endp, 0);
            if (*endp == '\0' && ret >= 0x01 && ret <= 0xff)
                return ret;
        }
        return -1;
    }

If @key is a recognized key name, return its (positive) code.
Else, if @key is a hexadecimal number between 1 and 0xff, return the
number.
Else, return -1.

Since the QAPI conversion, it uses index_from_key():

    int index_from_key(const char *key)
    {
        int i, keycode;
        char *endp;

        for (i = 0; QKeyCode_lookup[i] != NULL; i++) {
            if (!strcmp(key, QKeyCode_lookup[i])) {
                break;
            }
        }

        if (strstart(key, "0x", NULL)) {
            keycode = strtoul(key, &endp, 0);
            if (*endp == '\0' && keycode >= 0x01 && keycode <= 0xff) {
                for (i = 0; i < Q_KEY_CODE_MAX; i++) {
                    if (keycode == key_defs[i]) {
                        break;
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        /* Return Q_KEY_CODE_MAX if the key is invalid */
        return i;
    }

If @key is a recognized key name, return its (positive) code.
Else, if @key is a hexadecimal number between 1 and 0xff, and a
recognized key with that code exists, return the number.
Else, return -1.

The regression is *not* that the hexadecimal format isn't recognized
anymore, it's that numbers that don't have a key definition are now
rejected.

TL;DR: this differs unnecessarily from the pre-QAPI code, which makes
the fix less obvious than it could be.  But I think it should work, and
unbreaking autotest quickly is more important than making this patch
perfect, so I'm *not* asking for a respin because of that.

Strings starting with "0x" are interpreted differently than before the
QAPI conversion.

Before:

    If @key is a recognized key name, use its (positive) code.
    Else, if @key is a hexadecimal number between 1 and 0xff, use the
    number.
    Else, error.

After:

    If @key starts with "0x"
        If @key is a number, use it (range check is done later)
        Else, error
    Else
        If it's a recognized key name, use its (positive) code
        Else, error.

Makes a difference only if key names starting with "0x" exist.  None
exist now, and such names aren't likely to appear in the future.

Aside: codes starting with a digit do exist, and that's why we can do
only hexadecimal numeric keys.

The use of strtoul() here is sloppy, but it's no worse as before, in
index_from_key():

* Numbers overflowing int are silently truncated, as before.

* Numbers outside 0x01..0xff (possibly after truncation) are still
  flagged as error, in qmp_send_key() below.

Jumping forward and backward like that is a bit ugly, but let's unbreak
autotest.
