d20ebdda28 qemu: Switch to -accel
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.

279c64dccb qemu: command: Use JSON for parameters of -audiodev
'-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'.

9b2130ec8e tests: update QEMU and domain ppc64 capabilities for qemu 6.2
This patch updates domaincapsdata and qemucapabilitiesdata for ppc64
with qemu commit v6.1.0-1714-gc5b2f55981.

Changes in all 'ppc64-latest.ags' files were needed. The changes are
mundane despite the volume. For all 'ppc64-latest.args' files the
changes are:

- removing '-sandbox' command line;
- 'secret' and 'memory-backend-ram' objects are now using qom-type format;
- '-device' is now using qom-type format.

9ac91fcceb qemuBuildChrDeviceCommandLine: Generate via JSON
Build commandlines for character devices via JSON.

For devices using 'VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_ADDRESS_TYPE_VIRTIO_SERIAL' address
type 'qemuBuildDeviceAddressProps' will now generate the address. The
only special property is 'nr'. QEMU declares it as:

  nr=<uint32>            -  (default: 4294967295)

The test fallout is caused by formatting addresses as decimal numbers
instead of hex as described in the commit which added
'qemuBuildDeviceAddressProps'.

0046e0b1c2 qemuxml2argvtest: Use internal wrapping of command line arguments
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.

d96fb5cb31 qemu: add support for generating -audiodev arguments
The -audiodev argument is replacing the QEMU_AUDIO_DRV env variable (and
its relations).

Sadly we still have to use the SDL_AUDIODRIVER env variable because that
wasn't mapped into QAPI schema.

43c9c0859f qemu: use long on|off syntax for -chardev boolean option values
The preferred syntax for boolean options is to set the value "on" or
"off". QEMU 7.1.0 will deprecate the short format we currently use.

The long format has been supported with -chardev since at least 1.5.3,
so we don't need to check for it.

55e1c2b68a tests: Update capabilities for QEMU 5.0.0 on ppc64
The churn in the output files is caused primarily by the fact that
replies were generated on a POWER9 machine, which is good because
we didn't have coverage of that before.

Update ppc64 capabilities to pick up the new NVDIMM capability
support for ppc64.

Since the ppc64 capabilities weren't updated for some time, the
bulk of the changes here are related to the blockdev support
(see commit c6a9e54ce3 for info) that we are picking up just
now.

5e939cea89 qemu: Store default CPU in domain XML
When starting a domain without a CPU model specified in the domain XML,
QEMU will choose a default one. Which is fine unless the domain gets
migrated to another host because libvirt doesn't perform any CPU ABI
checks and the virtual CPU provided by QEMU on the destination host can
differ from the one on the source host.

With QEMU 4.2.0 we can probe for the default CPU model used by QEMU for
a particular machine type and store it in the domain XML. This way the
chosen CPU model is more visible to users and libvirt will make sure
the guest will see the exact same CPU after migration.

Architecture specific notes
- aarch64: We only set the default CPU for TCG domains as KVM requires
  explicit "-cpu host" to work.

- ppc64: The default CPU for KVM is "host" thanks to some hacks in QEMU,
  we will translate the default model to the model corresponding to the
  host CPU ("POWER8" on a Power8 host, "POWER9" on Power9 host, etc.).
  This is not a problem as the corresponding CPU model is in fact an
  alias for "host". This is probably not ideal, but it's not wrong and
  the default virtual CPU configured by libvirt is the same QEMU would
  use. TCG uses various CPU models depending on machine type and its
  version.

- s390x: The default CPU for KVM is "host" while TCG defaults to "qemu".

- x86_64: The default CPU model (qemu64) is not runnable on any host
  with KVM, but QEMU just disables unavailable features and starts
  happily.
