qapi: Reserve 'q_*' and 'has_*' member names

c_name() produces names starting with 'q_' when protecting a
dictionary member name that would fail to directly compile, but
in doing so can cause clashes with any member name already
beginning with 'q-' or 'q_'.  Likewise, we create a C name 'has_'
for any optional member that can clash with any member name
beginning with 'has-' or 'has_'.

Technically, rather than blindly reserving the namespace,
we could try to complain about user names only when an actual
collision occurs, or even teach c_name() how to munge names
to avoid collisions.  But it is not trivial, especially when
collisions can occur across multiple types (such as via
inheritance or flat unions).  Besides, no existing .json
files are trying to use these names.  So it's easier to just
outright forbid the potential for collision.  We can always
relax things in the future if a real need arises for QMP to
express member names that have been forbidden here.

'has_' only has to be reserved for struct/union member names,
while 'q_' is reserved everywhere (matching the fact that
only members can be optional, while we use c_name() for munging
both members and entities).  Note that we could relax 'q_'
restrictions on entities independently from member names; for
example, c_name('qmp_' + 'unix') would result in a different
function name than our current 'qmp_' + c_name('unix').

Update and add tests to cover the new error messages.
