The previous commit documented an inconsistency in how we are
using the stack of qmp-output-visitor. Normally, pushing a
single top-level object puts the object on the stack twice:
once as the root, and once as the current container being
appended to; but popping that struct only pops once. However,
qmp_ouput_add() was trying to either set up the added object
as the new root (works if you parse two top-level scalars in a
row: the second replaces the first as the root) or as a member
of the current container (works as long as you have an open
container on the stack; but if you have popped the first
top-level container, it then resolves to the root and still
tries to add into that existing container).
Fix the stupidity by not tracking two separate things in the
stack.
Not done here: maybe qmp_output_get_object() should assert that
the stack is empty, rather than letting users look at the current
root even while the root is still being visited.
