Specify the memory size by using '-m size=2048k' instead of just '-m 2'.
The new syntax is used when memory hotplug is enabled. To preserve
memory sizing, if memory hotplug is disabled the size is rounded down to
the nearest mebibyte.

These are allegedly necessary to keep the output consistent,
but now that we're using a privileged config for the driver we
get the desired behavior out of the box, and as a bonus the
paths match what you would actually see on a regular host.

QEMU deprecated the '-no-acpi' option, thus we should switch to the
modern way to use '-machine'.
Certain ARM machine types don't support ACPI. Given our historically
broken design of using '<acpi/>' without attribute to enable ACPI and
qemu's default of enabling it without '-no-acpi' such configurations
would not work.
Now when qemu reports whether given machine type supports ACPI we can do
a better decision and un-break those configs. Unfortunately not
retroactively.

Now that qemu fixed device unplug when JSON syntax is used with -device
we can re-enable the feature.
Since the old capability string representation is condemned by
suggesting filtering it as a workaround we must introduce a new string.
To achieve this the original capability position is renamed to
X_QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_JSON_BROKEN_HOTPLUG and a new position with the
original name QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_JSON is introduced to prevent us having
to change the rest of the code.

When -device is configured via JSON a bug [1] is triggered in qemu were
the DEVICE_DELETED event for the removal of the device frontend is no
longer delivered to libvirt. Without the DEVICE_DELETED event we don't
remove the corresponding entries in the VM XML.
Until qemu will be fixed we must stop using the JSON syntax for -device.
This patch removes the detection of the capability. The capability is
used only during startup of a fresh VM so we don't need to consider any
compaitibility steps for existing VMs.
For users who wish to use 'libvirt-7.9' and 'libvirt-7.10' with
'qemu-6.2' there are two possible workarounds:
- filter out the 'device.json' qemu capability '/etc/libvirt/qemu.conf':
capability_filters = [ "device.json" ]
- filter out the 'device.json' qemu capability via qemu namespace XML:
<domain type='kvm' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'>
[...]
<qemu:capabilities>
<qemu:del capability='device.json'/>
</qemu:capabilities>
</domain>
We must never again use the same capability name as we are now
instructing users to filter it as a workaround so once qemu is fixed
we'll need to pick a new capability value for it.

Upcoming patches will modify how we populate the capability cache in

what the real capabilities have.
