396ca36cb0 qemu: Enforce ACPI, UEFI requirements
Depending on the architecture, requirements for ACPI and UEFI can
be different; more specifically, while on x86 UEFI requires ACPI,
on aarch64 it's the other way around.

Enforce these requirements when validating the domain, and make
the error message more accurate by mentioning that they're not
necessarily applicable to all architectures.

Several aarch64 test cases had to be tweaked because they would
have failed the validation step otherwise.

445a09bdc9 qemu: Don't compare CPU against host for TCG
Right now when building the qemu command line, we try to do various
unconditional validations of the guest CPU against the host CPU. However
this checks are overly applied. The only time we should use the checks
are:

- The user requests host-model/host-passthrough, or

- When KVM is requsted. CPU features requested in TCG mode are always
  emulated by qemu and are independent of the host CPU, so no host CPU
  checks should be performed.

Right now if trying to specify a CPU for arm on an x86 host, it attempts
to do non-sensical validation and falls over.

Switch all the test cases that were intending to test CPU validation to
use KVM, so they continue to test the intended code.

Amend some aarch64 XML tests with a CPU model, to ensure things work
correctly.

27e32e0f3d AArch64: Porting of armv7l conditons to run qemu for aarch64.
AArch64 qemu has similar behavior as armv7l, like use of mmio etc.
This patch adds similar bypass checks what we have for armv7l to aarch64.
E.g. we are enabling mmio transport for Nicdev.
Making addDefaultUSB and addDefaultMemballoon to false etc.

V3:
- Adding missing domain rng schema for aarcg64 and test case in
  testutilsqemu.c which was causing test suite failure
  while running make check.

V2:
- Added testcase to qemuxml2argvtest as suggested
  during review comments of V1.

V1:
- Initial patch.
