hmp: Add support for coroutine command handlers

Often, QMP command handlers are not only called to handle QMP commands,
but also from a corresponding HMP command handler. In order to give them
a consistent environment, optionally run HMP command handlers in a
coroutine, too.

The implementation is a lot simpler than in QMP because for HMP, we
still block the VM while the coroutine is running.
