qmp: Fix design bug and read beyond buffer in memchar-write
Command memchar-write takes data and size parameter. Begs the
question what happens when data doesn't match size.
With format base64, qmp_memchar_write() copies the full data argument,
regardless of size argument.
With format utf8, qmp_memchar_write() copies size bytes from data,
happily reading beyond data. Copies crap from the heap or even
crashes.
Drop the size parameter, and always copy the full data argument.
