Currently, memory device (def->mems) part of cmd line is
generated before any controller. In majority of cases it doesn't
matter because neither of memory devices live on a bus that's
created by an exposed controller (e.g. there's no DIMM
controller, at least not exposed). Except for virtio-mem and
virtio-pmem, which do have a PCI address. And if it so happens
that the device goes onto non-default bus (pci.0) starting such
guest fails, because the controller that creates the desired bus
wasn't processed yet. QEMU processes arguments in order.
For instance, if virtio-mem has address with bus='0x01' QEMU
refuses to start with the following message:
Bus 'pci.1' not found
Similarly for virtio-pmem. I've successfully tested migration and
changing the order does not affect migration stream.

Upcoming patches will modify how we populate the capability cache in
tests to be more saner. This also means that the emulator binary and
architecture used in the test files using real capabilities must match
what the real capabilities have.

We currently use -machine accel=XXX which is just a syntax sugar
for -accel XXX. The former doesn't allow specifying arguments for
accelerator, because all arguments passed to -machine are
treated as arguments of machine itself.
The -accel argument was introduced in QEMU commit
v2.9.0-rc0~70^2~19 and since our minimum required version is
newer (2.11.0) we can safely assume its existence and use it
without any capability.

'-audiodev' as a modern implementation based on QAPI already takes JSON
as the argument. Convert our code to use it directly.
The declaration of the QAPI types can be found in
'qemu.git/qapi/audio.json'.

virCommandToString has the possibility to return an already wrapped
string with better format than what we get from the test wrapper script.
The main advantage is that arguments for an option are always on the
same line which makes it more easy to see what changed in a diff and
prevents re-wrapping of the line if a wrapping point moves over the
threshold.
Additionally the used output is the same we have in the VM log file when
a VM is starting.
