Few months back, was planning on using them for qemu-ga. Looks like
they're not in yet, but FWIW qemu-ga has been using g_base64_encode() since
initial commit. I think Jan had some reservations about g_base64_decode()'s
error-handling, but that shouldn't be an issue in this particular case.

I agree on the QMP approach sounding a whole lot cleaner, especially
given that Juan recently did a some cleanups to remove non-migration
