[PULL 20/25] qapi/error: Make QAPISourceError 'col' parameter optional

[Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>]

From: John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com>

It's already treated as optional, with one direct caller and some
subclass callers passing 'None'. Make it officially optional, which
requires moving the position of the argument to come after all required
parameters.

QAPISemError becomes functionally identical to QAPISourceError. Keep the
name to preserve its semantic meaning and avoid code churn, but remove
the now-useless __init__ wrapper.
