We enabled callers to interface directly with settimeout, but this
reacts poorly with blocking/nonblocking operation; as they are using the
same internal mechanism.
1. Whenever we change the blocking mechanism temporarily, always set it
back to what it was afterwards.
2. Disallow callers from setting a timeout of "0", which means
Non-blocking mode. This is going to create more weird problems than
anybody wants, so just forbid it.
I opt not to coerce '0' to 'None' to maintain the principal of least
surprise in mirroring the semantics of Python's interface.

Formalize the options used for checking the python library. You can run
mypy from the directory that mypy.ini is in by typing `mypy qemu/`.

The type and parameter names of recv() should match socket.socket().
OK, easy enough, but in the cases we don't pass straight through to the
real socket implementation, we probably can't accept such flags. OK, for
now, assert that we don't receive flags in such cases.

These should all be purely annotations with no changes in behavior at
all. You need to be in the python folder, but you should be able to
confirm that these annotations are correct (or at least self-consistent)
by running `mypy --strict qemu`.

These arguments don't need to be mutable and aren't really used as
such. Clarify their types as immutable and adjust code to match where
necessary.
In general, It's probably best not to accept a user-defined mutable
object and store it as internal object state unless there's a strong
justification for doing so. Instead, try to use generic types as input
with empty tuples as the default, and coerce to list where necessary.

Like many other Optional[] types, it's not always a given that this
object will be set. Wrap it in a type-shim that raises a meaningful
error and will always return a concrete type.

Don't append to the _remove_files list during _base_args; instead do so
during _launch. Rework _base_args as a @property to help facilitate
this impression.
This has the additional benefit of making the type of _console_address
easier to analyze statically.

Prior to this, it's difficult for mypy to intuit what the concrete type
of the monitor address is; it has difficulty inferring the type across
two variables.
Create _monitor_address as a property that always returns a valid
address to simplify static type analysis.
To preserve our ability to clean up, use a simple boolean to indicate
whether or not we should try to clean up the sock file after execution.

mypy and python type hints are not powerful enough to properly describe
JSON messages in Python 3.6. The best we can do, generally, is describe
them as Dict[str, Any].
Add casts to coerce this type for static analysis; but do NOT enforce
this type at runtime in any way.
Note: Python 3.8 adds a TypedDict construct which allows for the
description of more arbitrary Dictionary shapes. There is a third-party
module, "Pydantic", which is compatible with 3.6 that can be used
instead of the JSON library that parses JSON messages to fully-typed
Python objects, and may be preferable in some cases.
(That is well beyond the scope of this commit or series.)

This makes typing the qmp library difficult, as it necessitates wrapping
Optional[] around the type for every return type up the stack. At some
point, it becomes difficult to discern or remember why it's None instead
of the expected object.
Use the python exception system to tell us exactly why we didn't get an
object. Remove this special-cased return.
