[PATCH trivial v3] plugins: add missing docstrings to qemu-plugin.h

This patch adds docstrings for typedefs and function declarations in
include/plugins/qemu-plugin.h that were previously missing. This
resolves inconsistencies in the docs, e.g., the description for
qemu_plugin_read_register() referring to qemu_plugin_register_flush_cb()
but code cache flush callbacks not being documented themselves.

Hi,

While working on a QEMU plugin and browsing the online docs at
https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/devel/tcg-plugins.html, I noticed that
some of the API functions were not actually documented.

I went through the include/plugins/qemu-plugin.h header file and added
docstrings where they were missing, hoping of course that I documented
the correct functionality based on my understanding of the plugin
internals.

I hope that's useful and I didn't miss anything!

Best regards,
Florian

Changes in v3:
- Fix documentation build issue due to incorrect parameter name
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/[email protected]
Changes in v2:
- Added semantics clarification to the qemu_plugin_register_flush_cb()
  docstring (suggested by Pierrick)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/[email protected]
