Added AQMP TUI.

Implements the follwing basic features:
1) Command transmission/reception.
2) Shows events asynchronously.
3) Shows server status in the bottom status bar.
4) Automatic retries on disconnects and error conditions.

Also added type annotations and necessary pylint/mypy configurations.

I see what you wanted to do here. You'd like to show a nice error message even when the message isn't a valid QMP message, or even valid JSON. 

In the case of UnexpectedTypeError, we know it was valid JSON but not valid QMP -- we can still use the JSON library to format this message.
In the case of DeserializationError, it wasn't valid JSON at all -- and if you want nice formatting, you need to get creative.

You could probably apply your format_json() function only in the DeserializationError case -- that way it's only being used for a fairly specific purpose, and if it isn't quite so rigorously good at formatting JSON, it doesn't matter. You could name it format_malformed_input to suggest what it's used for a bit more clearly, perhaps?
I did a couple of more changes than what you have mentioned.
1) Removed ValueError and TypeError - since these are possible to occur because we use the deserialization interface of the message class. 
2) Refactored the format_json method to use the standard JSON module to format the message incase of a valid JSON message and use the simple string manipulation method incase of an invalid JSON message.

You could probably rewrite this to be retry False by default, and then select the handful of cases where you know you want to retry.

You can count backwards with list indices too, so you can look at history[-1], -2, -3, etc to go further backwards.
