This guards generating the variables for getting arguments, first a few
common ones, then one or two per argument.

The patch changes it to effectively

       if arg_type and (arg_type.members or arg_type.variants)

.variants is None (asserted in QAPISchemaCommand.check()).  Thus, the
patch effectively just adds and arg_type.members.

Impact: when arg_type has no members, we still generate the common
variables before the patch.  The patch suppresses them.  Whether that
makes sense depends on the next hunk, which generates the code using
these variables.

This guards generating the code for getting arguments: common code, and
per-argument code.

Impact: when arg_type has no members, we still generate the common code
before the patch.  The patch suppresses it.  Is that okay?  We'll see
below.

This guards generating label out.  or's left operand is about the
arguments.  Unlike the guards above, it checks .members even before the
patch.

We drop a pair of "create a visitor, destroy it without having done
anything with it".  Okay.

Commit message might mislead readers into assuming the patch merely
drops unused variables.  It actually drops creating useless visitors.
Easy enough to clarify:

    The generator special-cased

        { 'command':'foo', 'data': {} }
    to avoid emitting a visitor variable, but failed to see that

        { 'struct':'NamedEmptyType, 'data': {} }
        { 'command':'foo', 'data':'NamedEmptyType' }

    needs the same treatment.  There, the generator happily generates a
    visitor to get no arguments, and a visitor to destroy no arguments.
    The compiler isn't happy with that, as demonstrated by the updated
    qapi-schema-test.json:

        tests/test-qmp-marshal.c: In function ‘qmp_marshal_user_def_cmd0’:
        tests/test-qmp-marshal.c:264:14: error: variable ‘v’ set but not used 
[-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]
             Visitor *v;
                      ^
