qemu-char: fix deadlock with "-monitor pty"
qemu_chr_be_generic_open cannot be called with the write lock taken,
because it calls client code that may call qemu_chr_fe_write. This
actually happens for the monitor:
0x00007ffff27dbf79 in __GI_raise (sig=sig@entry=6)
0x00007ffff27df388 in __GI_abort ()
0x00005555555ef489 in error_exit (err=<optimized out>, msg=msg@entry=0x5555559796d0 <__func__.5959> "qemu_mutex_lock")

0x0000555555629806 in monitor_event (opaque=0x555556251fd0, event=<optimized out>)
0x000055555571343c in qemu_chr_be_generic_open (s=0x555556248a30)
To avoid this, defer the call to an idle callback, which will be
called as soon as the main loop is re-entered. In order to simplify
the cleanup and do it in one place only, change pty_chr_close to
call pty_chr_state.
To reproduce, run with "-monitor pty", then try to read from the
slave /dev/pts/FOO that it creates.
