Andreas called one aspect - please add '(since 1.6)'.

New QMP interfaces favor '-' over '_', and we also favor full words
rather than abbreviations.  Furthermore, since this parameter is already
typed as a string, I think the _str suffix is redundant.  I think it is
sufficient to just name it 'default', as in:

# @default: #optional string representation of the default used
#           if the option is omitted

Is it worth picking an example that actually shows a default value?  But
I won't insist.

Of course, if you follow my naming suggestion, this would be
desc[i].q_default (or whatever QAPI code generation munges it to),
rather than desc[i].default, thanks to being a C keyword :)
