At present, the package is named "qemu.qmp", which is the import name in Python.
("qemu" is the namespace, "qmp" is the package, "import qemu.qmp" is
how you import it.)

I figured I'd just name the repository the exact same thing, but I
realize that may introduce some ambiguity at the QEMU project gitlab
namespace level. "py-qemu.qmp" or similar would also probably be fine.
I think I want to avoid straying too far away from the import and
package names, if I can.
