qapi/parser: enforce all top-level expressions must be dict in _parse()

Instead of using get_expr nested=False, allow get_expr to always return
any expression. In exchange, add a new error message to the top-level
parser that explains the semantic error: Top-level expressions must
always be JSON objects.

This helps mypy understand the rest of this function which assumes that
get_expr did indeed return a dict.

The exception type changes from QAPIParseError to QAPISemError as a
result, and the error message in two tests now changes.
