Here you call it "arguments", but in the code you call it "argument".

Umm, did you test this?

$ printf %s\\n \
  '{"execute":"qmp_capabilities"}' \
  '{"execute":"query-command-line-options"}' \
  '{"execute":"quit"}' \
 | ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -qmp stdio | grep fips
$

I was expecting -enable-fips to appear somewhere in the output.
Something's not right, but I'm not going to figure out what.  Here's
hoping v4 actually gets it working.

For that matter, even this wasn't true.  In my testing, I see the same
thing as pre-patch for the -smbios option:

{"parameters": [], "option": "smbios"}

but the docs imply that I should now see:

{"parameters": [], "option": "smbios", "argument": true}

Defining this non-namespace-friendly macro in a header seems risky.  Can
you localize its use, by using it only in the .c file that needs it,
and/or #undef it when done using it?

Sticking a static array in a header is even worse than the v2 - now
every .c file that includes this .h has its own copy of the variable.
You really want the .h to just declare the variable as extern, then have
a single .c file actually implement it.

defaults info->has_argument to false and info->argument to false...

...changes info->argument to true for options that take unspecified
arguments (such as -smbios), but with no effect to output unless...

...this line gets executed.  I guess info->parameters is false for both
boolean options (where info->argument remains at its default of false)
and for unspecified arguments (where info->argument was set to true
above), while omitting the argument output for options that take named
options?  But while it looks okay in theory, the implementation was
still broken based on my testing, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
