[PATCH v3 5/7] iotests: Conditionally silence certain AQMP errors

[John Snow]

AQMP likes to be very chatty about errors it encounters. In general,
this is good because it allows us to get good diagnostic information for
otherwise complex async failures.

For example, during a failed QMP connection attempt, we might see:

+ERROR:qemu.aqmp.qmp_client.qemub-2536319:Negotiation failed: EOFError
+ERROR:qemu.aqmp.qmp_client.qemub-2536319:Failed to establish session: EOFError

This might be nice in iotests output, because failure scenarios
involving the new QMP library will be spelled out plainly in the output
diffs.

For tests that are intentionally causing this scenario though, filtering
that log output could be a hassle. For now, add a context manager that
simply lets us toggle this output off during a critical region.

(Additionally, a forthcoming patch allows the use of either legacy or
async QMP to be toggled with an environment variable. In this
circumstance, we can't amend the iotest output to just always expect the
error message, either. Just suppress it for now. More rigorous log
filtering can be investigated later if/when it is deemed safe to
permanently replace the legacy QMP library.)
