error: Report certain hints on stderr when no monitor

Hints printed with error_printf_unless_qmp() are suppressed outside
monitor context.  Reproducer:

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1Z
    qemu-system-x86_64: -m 1Z: Parameter 'size' expects a size

Print to stderr instead.  The reproducer now additionally prints:

    You may use k, M, G or T suffixes for kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes and terabytes.
