I'd suggest to convert do_commit() to the qapi. However, we already
have block-commit in QMP. So I'm not sure this is a good idea.
If it isn't, then maybe we could drop all qerro_report() calls and
use monitor_printf() instead (building the error message with
strerror()), as do_commit() seems to be used only from HMP.
