qapi: Use generated TestStruct machinery in tests
Commit d88f5fd and friends first introduced the various test-qmp-*
tests in 2011, with duplicated hand-rolled TestStruct machinery,
to make sure the qapi visitor interface was tested. Later, commit
4f193e3 in 2013 added a .json file for further testing use by the
files, but without consolidating any of the existing hand-rolled
visitors. And with four copies, subtle differences have crept in,
between the tests themselves (mainly whitespace differences, but
also a question of whether to use NULL or "TestStruct" when
calling visit_start_struct()) and from what the generator produces
(the hand-rolled versions did not cater to partially-allocated
objects, because they did not have a deallocation usage).
Of course, just because the visitor interface is tested does not
mean it is a sane interface; and future patches will be changing
some of the visitor contracts. Rather than having to duplicate
the cleanup work in each copy of the TestStruct visitor, and keep
each hand-rolled copy in sync with what the generator supplies, we
might as well just test what the generator should give us in the
first place.
