aqmp-tui, the async QMP text user interface tool, is presently licensed
as GPLv2+. I intend to include this tool as an add-on to an LGPLv2+
library package hosted on PyPI.org. I've selected LGPLv2+ to maximize
compatibility with other licenses while retaining a copyleft license.
To keep licensing matters simple, I'd like to relicense this tool as
LGPLv2+ as well in order to keep the resultant license of the hosted
release files simple -- even if library users won't "link against" this
command line tool.
Therefore, I am asking permission to loosen the license.
Niteesh is effectively the sole author of this code, with scattered
lines from myself.

pylint's dependency astroid appears to have bugs in 2.9.1 and 2.9.2 (Dec
31 and Jan 3) that appear to erroneously expect the qemu namespace to
have an __init__.py file. astroid 2.9.3 (Jan 9) avoids that problem, but
appears to not understand a relative import within a namespace package.
Update the relative import - it was worth changing anyway, because these
packages will eventually be packaged and distributed separately.

Add syntax highlighting for the incoming and outgoing QMP messages.
This is achieved using the pygments module which was added in a
previous commit.
The current implementation is a really simple one which doesn't
allow for any configuration. In future this has to be improved
to allow for easier theme config using an external config of
some sort.
