While checking for ABI stability, drivers might pose additional
checks that are not valid for general case. For instance, qemu
driver might check some memory backing attributes because of how
qemu works. But those attributes may work well in other drivers.

Add kernel_irqchip=split/on to the QEMU command line
and a capability that looks for it in query-command-line-options
output. For the 'split' option, use a version check
since it cannot be reasonably probed.

This patch maps /domain/cpu/cache element into -cpu parameters:
- <cache mode='passthrough'/> is translated to host-cache-info=on
- <cache level='3' mode='emulate'/> is transformed into l3-cache=on
- <cache mode='disable'/> is turned in host-cache-info=off,l3-cache=off
Any other <cache> element is forbidden.
The tricky part is detecting whether QEMU supports the CPU properties.
The 'host-cache-info' property is introduced in v2.4.0-1389-ge265e3e480,
earlier QEMU releases enabled host-cache-info by default and had no way
to disable it. If the property is present, it defaults to 'off' for any
QEMU until at least 2.9.0.
The 'l3-cache' property was introduced later by v2.7.0-200-g14c985cffa.
Earlier versions worked as if l3-cache=off was passed. For any QEMU
until at least 2.9.0 l3-cache is 'off' by default.
QEMU 2.9.0 was the first release which supports probing both properties
by running device-list-properties with typename=host-x86_64-cpu. Older
QEMU releases did not support device-list-properties command for CPU
devices. Thus we can't really rely on probing them and we can just use
query-cpu-model-expansion QMP command as a witness.
Because the cache property probing is only reliable for QEMU >= 2.9.0
when both are already supported for quite a few releases, we let QEMU
report an error if a specific cache mode is explicitly requested. The
other mode (or both if a user requested CPU cache to be disabled) is
explicitly turned off for QEMU >= 2.9.0 to avoid any surprises in case
the QEMU defaults change. Any older QEMU already turns them off so not
doing so explicitly does not make any harm.

With QEMU older than 2.9.0 libvirt uses CPUID instruction to determine
what CPU features are supported on the host. This was later used when
checking compatibility of guest CPUs. Since QEMU 2.9.0 we ask QEMU for
the host CPU data. But the two methods we use usually provide disjoint
sets of CPU features because QEMU/KVM does not support all features
provided by the host CPU and on the other hand it can enable some
feature even if the host CPU does not support them.
So if there is a domain which requires a CPU features disabled by
QEMU/KVM, libvirt will refuse to start it with QEMU > 2.9.0 as its guest
CPU is incompatible with the host CPU data we got from QEMU. But such
domain would happily start on older QEMU (of course, the features would
be missing the guest CPU). To fix this regression, we need to combine
both CPU feature sets when checking guest CPU compatibility.

We already know from QEMU which CPU features will block migration. Let's
use this information to make a migratable copy of the host CPU model and
use it for updating guest CPU specification. This will allow us to drop
feature filtering from virCPUUpdate where it was just a hack.

The capabilities used in test cases should match those used
during normal operation for the tests to make any sense.
This results in the generated command line for a few test
cases (most notably non-x86 test cases that were wrongly
assuming they could use -no-acpi) changing.
Instead of having a single function that probes the
architecture from the monitor and then sets a bunch of
basic capabilities based on it, have a separate function
for each part: virQEMUCapsInitQMPArch() only sets the
architecture, and virQEMUCapsInitQMPBasicArch() only sets
the capabilities.
This split will be useful later on, when we will want to
set basic capabilities from the test suite without having
to go through the pain of mocking the monitor.
CPU features which change their value from disabled to enabled between
two calls to query-cpu-model-expansion (the first with no extra
properties set and the second with 'migratable' property set to false)
can be marked as enabled and non-migratable in qemuMonitorCPUModelInfo.
Since the code consuming qemuMonitorCPUModelInfo currently ignores the
migratable flag, this change is effectively changing the CPU model
advertised in domain capabilities to contain all features (even those
which block migration). And this matches what we do for QEMU older than
2.9.0, when we detect all CPUID bits ourselves without asking QEMU.
As a result of this change
<cpu mode='host-model'>
<feature name='invtsc' policy='require'/>
</cpu>
will work with all QEMU versions. Such CPU definition would be forbidden
with QEMU >= 2.9.0 without this patch.

If calling query-cpu-model-expansion on the 'host'/'max' CPU model with
'migratable' property set to false succeeds, we know QEMU is able to
tell us which features would disable migration. Thus we can mark all
enabled features as migratable.

There is no "node driver" as there was before, drivers have to do
their own ACL checking anyway, so they all specify their functions and
nodeinfo is basically just extending conf/capablities. Hence moving
the code to src/conf/ is the right way to go.
Also that way we can de-duplicate some code that is in virsysfs and/or
virhostcpu that got duplicated during the virhostcpu.c split. And
Some cleanup is done throughout the changes, like adding the vir*
prefix etc.

The event is fired when a given block backend node (identified by the
node name) experiences a write beyond the bound set via
block-set-write-threshold QMP command. This wires up the monitor code to
extract the data and allow us receiving the events and the capability.
QEMU 2.9 introduces the pcie-root-port device, which is
a generic version of the existing ioh3420 device.
Make the new device available to libvirt users.
There were couple of reports on the list (e.g. [1]) that guests
with huge amounts of RAM are unable to start because libvirt
kills qemu in the initialization phase. The problem is that if
guest is configured to use hugepages kernel has to zero them all
out before handing over to qemu process. For instance, 402GiB
worth of 1GiB pages took around 105 seconds (~3.8GiB/s). Since we
do not want to make the timeout for connecting to monitor
configurable, we have to teach libvirt to count with this
fact. This commit implements "1s per each 1GiB of RAM" approach
as suggested here [2].

One of the main reasons for introducing host-model CPU definition in a
domain capabilities XML was the inability to express disabled features
in a host capabilities XML. That is, when a host CPU is, e.g., Haswell
without x2apic support, host capabilities XML will have to report it as
Westmere + a bunch of additional features., but we really want to use
Haswell - x2apic when creating a host-model CPU.
Unfortunately, I somehow forgot to do the last step and the code would
just copy the CPU definition found in the host capabilities XML. This
changed recently for new QEMU versions which allow us to query host CPU,
but any slightly older QEMU will not benefit from any change I did. This
patch makes sure the right CPU model is filled in the domain
capabilities even with old QEMU.
