Commit Message

QAPISchemaParser is a conventional recursive descent parser.  Except
QAPISchemaParser.get_doc() delegates most of the doc comment parsing
work to a state machine in QAPIDoc.  The state machine doesn't get
tokens like a recursive descent parser, it is fed tokens.

I find this state machine rather opaque and hard to maintain.

Replace it by a conventional parser, all in QAPISchemaParser.  Less
code, and (at least in my opinion) easier to understand.
