Currently a VM's params are changed before the test only if it's restarted.
This patch allows VM params to be changed when it isn't restarted. This is
useful for params that can have an effect without a restart, such as
main_monitor: monitors can be switched between tests without restarting, so
that one test talks to the human monitor and the next test talks to the QMP
monitor of the same VM.
