monitor: remove 'skip_flush' field

The 'skip_flush' field is set on the dummy throwaway HMP monitor
object created by QMP's  'human-monitor-command', as an indication
not to try to write data to the chardev. Instead the QMP command
impl will grab the data straight out of the in-memory buffer.

The flag is redundant, however, as the monitor code could instead
simply check the 'fe_is_open' field on the CharFrontend, which
will be false in the same scenarios that 'skip_flush' is true.
