global_state: Make section optional

This section would be sent:

a- for all new machine types
b- for old machine types if section state is different form {running,paused}
   that were the only giving us troubles.

So, in new qemus: it is alwasy there.  In old qemus: they are only
there if it an error has happened, basically stoping on target.
