hmp: Allow for error message hints on HMP
Commits 7216ae3d and d2828429 disabled some error message hints, all because a change to use modern error reporting meant that the hint would be output prior to the actual error. Fix this by making hints a first-class member of Error. For example, we are now back to the pleasant: $ qemu-system-x86_64 --nodefaults -S --vnc :0 --chardev null,id=, qemu-system-x86_64: --chardev null,id=,: Parameter 'id' expects an identifier Identifiers consist of letters, digits, '-', '.', '_', starting with a letter.
