qapi: support updating expected test output via make

It is possible to pass --update to tests/qapi-schema/test-qapi.py
to make it update the output files on error. This is inconvenient
to achieve though when test-qapi.py is run indirectly by make/meson.

Instead simply allow for an env variable to be set:

 $ QAPI_TEST_UPDATE= make check-qapi-schema
