qmp: Deprecate query-events in favor of query-qmp-schema
query-events doesn't reflect compile-time configuration. Instead of fixing that, deprecate the command in favor of query-qmp-schema. Libvirt prefers query-qmp-schema as of commit 22d7222ec0 "qemu: caps: Don't call 'query-events' when we probe events from QMP schema". It'll be in the next release.
