iotests: port 141 to Python for reliable QMP testing

The common.qemu bash functions allow tests to interact with the QMP
monitor of a QEMU process. I spent two days trying to update 141 when
the order of the test output changed, but found it would still fail
occassionally because printf() and QMP events race with synchronous QMP
communication.

I gave up and ported 141 to the existing Python API for QMP tests. The
Python API is less affected by the order in which QEMU prints output
because it does not print all QMP traffic by default.

The next commit changes the order in which QMP messages are received.
Make 141 reliable first.
