[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qmp-shell: Fix example with objects as values

[Anthony PERARD <anthony.perard@citrix.com>]

The example shown that is suppose to let a user passes an object/array as
argument doesn't work. The quotes get removed by shlex.split() and then
both JSON parser complains. Fix the example by adding quotes and add
examples with boolean and array.
