This patch seems to fix the deadlock that can happen if the migrated domain is
destroyed at the destination reported here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-May/msg00236.html

It looks good to me, but it seems there are more functions calling
qemuDomainObjEnterMonitor that can be called from qemuProcessStart,
for example qemuDomainChangeGraphicsPasswords.

Also, the return value of this call could be dangerous to ignore if asyncJob
!= NONE.
