4588c2ce97 qemu: assume -name is always available
The -name arg was added in QEMU 0.9.1, so the QEMU driver can
assume it is always available.

8afd34f2d8 tests: redo test argv file line wrapping
Back in

  commit bd6c46fa0c

    tests: handle backspace-newline pairs in test input files

all the test argv files were line wrapped so that the args
were less than 80 characters.

The way the line wrapping was done turns out to be quite
undesirable, because it often leaves multiple parameters
on the same line. If we later need to add or remove
individual parameters, then it leaves us having to redo
line wrapping.

This commit changes the line wrapping so that every
single "-param value" is one its own new line. If the
"value" is still too long, then we break on ',' or ':'
or ' ' as needed.

This means that when we come to add / remove parameters
from the test files line, the patch diffs will only
ever show a single line added/removed which will greatly
simplify review work.

e0dc851164 qemu: Add support for paravirtual spinlocks in the guest
The linux kernel recently added support for paravirtual spinlock
handling to avoid performance regressions on overcomitted hosts. This
feature needs to be turned in the hypervisor so that the guest OS is
notified about the possible support.

This patch adds a new feature "paravirt-spinlock" to the XML and
supporting code to enable the "kvm_pv_unhalt" pseudo CPU feature in
qemu.
