qapi: Plumb in 'boxed' to qapi generator lower levels

Browse source 
The next patch will add support for passing a qapi union type
as the 'data' of a command.  But to do that, the user function
for implementing the command, as called by the generated
marshal command, must take the corresponding C struct as a
single boxed pointer, rather than a breakdown into one
parameter per member.  Even without a union, being able to use
a C struct rather than a list of parameters can make it much
easier to handle coding with QAPI.

This patch adds the internal plumbing of a 'boxed' flag
associated with each command and event.  In several cases,
this means adding indentation, with one new dead branch and
the remaining branch being the original code more deeply
nested; this was done so that the new implementation in the
next patch is easier to review without also being mixed with
indentation changes.

For this patch, no behavior or generated output changes, other
than the testsuite outputting the value of the new flag
(always False for now).
