Human monitor commands that take more than a single parameter will have
a problem because dicts (kwargs) are unordered, while human monitor
parameters are.
We could use a string like Feng Yang suggested both for QMP and the
human monitor. In the human monitor case we'll just have to ignore the
keys and consider only the values in the order provided. However, that
will only work for some of the commands. What do we do about commands
like migrate which takes a -d flag?
The way I see it, the solution is either wrappers, or separate cmd()
syntaxes for the human monitor and QMP. The QMP cmd() will take kwargs
(e.g. cmd(command="screendump", filename="scr.ppm")), and the human
cmd() will remain as it is today.

I've thought about what would be the best approach in this situation,
and here are my findings:
* Wrappers are nice, but indeed a systematic test of all monitor
commands would be made unnecessarily complicated, since not all
functions have enough usage to justify a separate wrapper for them.
* On the other hand, it also sucks having to handle qmp and human
monitor separately.
It seems a reasonable alternative to implement the cmd() method in a way
that it picks **kwargs and then passes the appropriate params to the
underlying monitor. For example:
vm.monitor.cmd(command="screendump", filename="scr.ppm")
Would pass "screendump scr.ppm" to a human monitor, and "screendump
filename=scr.ppm" to a qmp monitor (we'd just have slightly different
implementations that handle the same **kwargs differently for each type
of monitor).
What do you guys think?

Why not add a wrapper for the command you're interested in?
If we do it your way, a test that uses cmd() with parameters will have
to handle the human case and the QMP case separately. For example, if a
human monitor is used the test will have to use
vm.monitor.cmd("screendump scr.ppm")
and if QMP is used the test will have to use
vm.monitor.cmd("screendump filename=scr.ppm").
but if we use a wrapper,
vm.monitor.screendump("scr.ppm")
will work in both cases.

[PATCH 1/2] KVM Test: Update cmd() help function in kvm_monitor.py to support parameters.
This function allow user send qmp command with parameters.
e.g. balloon value=1073741824
Also log command to debug.
