nodeinfo: Add check and workaround to guarantee valid cpu topologies

Lately there were a few reports of the output of the virsh nodeinfo
command being inaccurate. This patch tries to avoid that by checking if
the topology actually makes sense. If it doesn't we then report a
synthetic topology that indicates to the user that the host capabilities
should be checked for the actual topology.
