This is kind of tricky; The qemu capabilities (of any version) rely on
configure options passed during the build. Hence, my 1.5.3 differs (in
general) to yours 1.5.3; But I think we can name the files like
caps_1.5.3-1, caps_1.5.3-2 (similar to RHEL package naming).

I am not sure. I mean, we would have to count the matching { } to cut
the reply into pieces. For instance, if we get a reply among with an
event on the QMP monitor, it looks like this currently:

{"return": ...}\n
{"timestamp": ...}\n

(I've added '\n' intentionally to stress the line break after each reply)

And here comes the tricky part - we would have to parse json in order to
parse json (I guess bare search for matching { } isn't enough -
consider: {"return": {"blah": "}"}} ). Moreover, if we find that JSON
snippet from qemu is not valid - there should be a restart character
that would reset our JSON parser and translate it to START state so we
can continue reading another reply. Something like we have for qemu-ga.
