The hint was introduced a long time ago when broken TSX implementation
was found in Haswell and Broadwell CPUs. Since then many more CPUs with
TSX were introduced and and disabled due to TAA vulnerability.
Thus the hint is not very useful and I think removing it is a better
choice then updating it to cover all current noTSX models.
This partially reverts:

The element specifies whether a particular CPU model can be used when
creating a CPU definition from raw CPUID/MSR data. The @host attribute
determines whether the CPU model can be used (host='on') for creating
CPU definition for host capabilities. Usability of the model for domain
capabilities and host-model CPU definitions is controlled by the @guest
attribute.

The check attribute was completely ignored for host-passthrough CPUs
even if they explicitly requested some features to be enabled. For
example, a domain with the following CPU definition
<cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='full'>
<feature policy='require' name='svm'/>
</cpu>
would happily start even when 'svm' cannot be enabled.
Let's call virCPUArchUpdateLive for host-passthrough CPUs with
VIR_CPU_CHECK_FULL to make sure the architecture specific code can
validate the provided virtual CPU against the desired definition.

Whenever there is a guest CPU configured in domain XML, we will call
some CPU driver APIs to validate the CPU definition and check its
compatibility with the hypervisor. Thus domains with guest CPU
specification can only be started if the guest architecture is supported
by the CPU driver. But we would add a default CPU to any domain as long
as QEMU reports it causing failures to start any domain on affected
architectures.

The virCapabilitiesGetNodeInfo() function has the usual return
value semantics for integeres: a negative value means an error,
zero or a positive value means success. However, the function
call done in virCPUProbeHost() doesn't check for the return value
accordingly.

Recently CPU hardware vendors have started to support a new structure
inside the CPU package topology known as a "die". Thus the hierarchy
is now:
sockets > dies > cores > threads
This adds support for "dies" in the XML parser, with the value
defaulting to 1 if not specified for backwards compatibility.
For example a system with 64 logical CPUs might report
<topology sockets="4" dies="2" cores="4" threads="2"/>

bhyveargv2xmlmock calls virBhyveCapsBuild which in turn
calls virCPUProbeHost, probing the real host CPU. This
causes a test failure if the host CPU happens to contain
the 'arch-capabilities' feature as it triggers a call
to virHostCPUGetMSR() which fails on FreeBSD.
Fortunately we already have convenient code for mocking
the host CPU probing.

The match attribute is only relevant for custom mode CPUs. Reporting
failure when match == 'minimum' regardless on CPU mode can cause
unexpected failures. We should only report the error for custom CPUs. In
fact, calling virCPUs390Update on a custom mode CPU should always report
an error as optional features are not supported on s390 either.

Originally the names of the KVM CPU features were only used internally
for looking up their CPUID bits. So we used "__kvm_" prefix for them to
make sure the names do not collide with normal CPU features stored in
our CPU map.
But with QEMU 4.1 we check which features were enabled or disabled by a
freshly started QEMU process using their names rather than their CPUID
bits (mostly because of MSR features). Thus we need to change our made
up internal names into the actual names used by QEMU.
