monitor/hmp: add support for flag argument with value
Adds support for the "-xs" parameter type, where "-x" denotes a flag name and the "s" suffix indicates that this flag is supposed to take an arbitrary string parameter. These parameters are always optional, the entry in the qdict will be omitted if the flag is not given.
