The PMU feature is enabled by default in ppc64 guests and can't
be disabled via Libvirt or QEMU [1]. The current PMU feature
implementation does not allow PMU to enabled or disabled in the
ppc64 guest. Declaring the PMU feature will make the 'pmu'
property to be passed on to QEMU, but this property isn't
available for ppc64:
qemu-kvm: can't apply global host-powerpc64-cpu.pmu=on: Property '.pmu' not found
A similar error is thrown when trying to disable the PMU.
This patch standardizes the PMU handling for ppc64 guests by:
- throwing an error if the user attempts to set the feature to
'off', given that this feature can't be turned off at all;
- allowing the feature to be declared as 'on' in the domain XML.
This is done by skipping ppc64 guests when creating the command
line for this feature.

Hyperv features are supported by both x86 and aarch64. The <hyperv/>
declaration in the XML by itself is benign to other architectures,
but any of its 14 current features will break QEMU with an error
like this (from ppc64):
qemu-kvm: Expected key=value format, found hv_relaxed
This is a more extreme case than the one for apic eoi because we
would need an extra 'switch' statement, with all current Hyperv
features in the body of qemuDomainDefValidateFeatures(), to
check if the user attempted to activate any of them. It's easier to
simply fail to launch with any 'hyperv' declaration in the XML for
every arch which is not x86 and aarch64.
A fair disclaimer about Windows and PowerPC: the last Windows version
that ran in the architecture is the hall of famer Windows NT 4.0,
launched in 1996 and with end of extended support for the Server
version in 2004 [1]. I am acknowledging that there might be Windows
NT 4.0 users running in PowerPC, but not enough people running it
under KVM/QEMU to justify Libvirt allowing 'hyperv' to exist in the
domain XML of ppc64 domains.

The 'pvspinlock' feature is x86 only. The "<pvspinlock/>" declaration
will always have a value 'on' or 'off', and both will break QEMU when
launching non-x86 guests. This is the error message for
"<pvspinlock state='on'/>" when running a ppc64 guest:
qemu-kvm: Expected key=value format, found +kvm_pv_unhalt
A similar error message is thrown for "<pvspinlock state='off'/>".
This patch prevents non-x86 guests from launching with any
pvspinlock setting with a more informative error message:
error: unsupported configuration: The 'pvspinlock' feature is not
supported for architecture 'ppc64' or machine type 'pseries'

The "<apic/>" feature, although it's available only for x86 guests,
can be declared in the domain XML of other archs without errors.
But setting its 'eoi' attribute will break QEMU. For "<apic eoi='on'/>",
in a ppc64 guest:
qemu-kvm: Expected key=value format, found +kvm_pv_eoi
A similar error happens with eoi='off'.
One can argue that it's better to simply forbid launching non-x86
guests with "<apic/>" declared in the XML - it is a feature that
the architecture doesn't support and this would make it clearer
about it. This is sensible, but there are non-x86 guests that are
running with "<apic/>" declared in the domain (and A LOT of guests
running with "<acpi/>" for that matter, probably reminiscent of x86
templates that were reused for other archs) that will stop working if we
go this route.
A more subtle approach is to detect if the 'eoi' element is being set
for non-x86 guests and warn the user about it with a better error
message than the one QEMU provides. This is the new error message
when any value is set for the 'eoi' element in a ppc64 XML:
error: unsupported configuration: The 'eoi' attribute of the 'apic'
feature is not supported for architecture 'ppc64' or machine type
'pseries'.

Unfortunately, advisory record locking lose the lock if any fd refering
to the file is closed. There doesn't seem to be a way to preserve the
lock atomically. We could eventually retake the lock if low pidfilefd
is required.
This fixes processes being leaked, as they are not killed in
virPidFileForceCleanupPath() if the lock can be taken. Here also, we may
consider this is not good enough, as a process may leak by simply
closing the pidfilefd.

Our virCommand module allows us to set a pidfile for commands we
want to spawn. The caller constructs the string of pidfile path
and then uses virCommandSetPidFile() to tell the module to write
the pidfile once the command is ran. This usually works, but has
two flaws:
1) the child process does not hold the pidfile open & locked.
Therefore, the caller (or anybody else) can't use our fancy
virPidFileForceCleanupPath() function to kill the command
afterwards. Also, for everybody else on the system it's
needlessly harder to check if the pid from the pidfile is still
alive or not.
2) if the caller ever makes a mistake and passes the same pidfile
path for two different commands, the start of the second command
will overwrite the pidfile even though the first command might
still be running.
NOTE that this temporarily renders some command spawning
unusable, specifically those code patterns where both
virCommandSetPidFile() is used together with instructing spawned
command to acquire pidfile itself. Fortunately, there is only one
occurrence of such pattern and it is in
qemuProcessStartManagedPRDaemon(). This is fixed in next commit.

then reads the error and compares with expected output. Problem
with this approach is that error message contains stringified
