python: add directory structure README.rst files
Add short readmes to python/, python/qemu/, python/qemu/machine, python/qemu/qmp, and python/qemu/utils that explain the directory hierarchy. These readmes are visible when browsing the source on e.g. gitlab/github and are designed to help new developers/users quickly make sense of the source tree. They are not designed for inclusion in a published manual.
