remove -writeconfig
Like -set and -readconfig, it would not really be too hard to
extend -writeconfig to parsing mechanisms other than QemuOpts.
However, the uses of -writeconfig are substantially more
limited, as it is generally easier to write the configuration
by hand in the first place. In addition, -writeconfig does
not even try to detect cases where it prints incorrect
syntax (for example if values have a quote in them, since
qemu_config_parse does not support any kind of escaping.
Just remove it.
