qemuAgentClose and qemuAgentIO have race condition,
as follows:

main thread:                          second thread:
virEventPollRunOnce                processSerialChangedEvent
  virEventPollDispatchHandles
    virMutexUnlock(&eventLoop.lock)
                                      qemuAgentClose
                                        virObjectLock(mon)
                                        virEventRemoveHandle
                                        VIR_FORCE_CLOSE(mon->fd)
                                        virObjectUnlock(mon)
                                      priv->agentError = false
    qemuAgentIO
      virObjectLock(mon)
        mon->fd != fd --> error = true
        qemuProcessHandleAgentError
          priv->agentError = true
      virObjectUnlock(mon)
    virMutexLock(&eventLoop.lock)

qemuAgentClose set the mon->fd to '-1', and then qemuAgentIO
check the mon->fd not equals to fd that registered before.
qemuProcessHandleAgentError will be called to set
priv->agentError to 'true', then the priv->agentError is
always 'true' except restart libvirtd or restart
qemu-guest-agent process in guest. We can't send any
qemu-agent-command anymore even if qemuConnectAgent return
success later.

This is accidently occurs when hot-add-vcpu in windows2012.
  virsh setvcpus ...
  virsh qemu-agent-command $vm '{"execute":"guest-get-vcpus"}'

Reset the priv->agentError to 'false' when qemuConnectAgent sucess
to fix this problem.
