For finding the best matching CPU model for a given set of features
while we don't know the CPU signature (i.e., when computing a baseline
CPU model) we've been using a "shortest list of features" heuristics.
This works well if new CPU models are supersets of older models, but
that's not always the case. As a result it may actually select a new CPU
model as a baseline while removing some features from it to make it
compatible with older models. This is in general worse than using an old
CPU model with a bunch of added features as a guest OS or apps may crash
when using features that were disabled.
On the other hand we don't want to end up with a very old model which
would guarantee no disabled features as it could stop a guest OS or apps
from using some features provided by the CPU because they would not
expect them on such an old CPU.
This patch changes the heuristics to something in between. Enabled and
disabled features are counted separately so that a CPU model requiring
some features to be disabled looks worse than a model with fewer
disabled features even if its complete list of features is longer. The
penalty given for each additional disabled feature gets bigger to make
longer list of disabled features look even worse.

The domain capabilities won't report TPM support unless SWTPM can be
initialized. To avoid relying on the swtpm install in the host, mock
the entire initialization method, since all it needs todo is return
a non-error value.

Due to missing pdpe1gb support in the host CPU data, the CPU is still
incorrectly detected as Westmere-IBRS for host capabilities because we
don't have the option to disable features included in the base model
there.

The feature is never enabled by default on KVM and QEMU dropped it from

QEMU supports egl-headless if QEMU_CAPS_EGL_HEADLESS capability
is present. There are some additional requirements but those are
checked for in qemuValidateDomainDeviceDefGraphics() and depend
on domain configuration and thus are not representable in domain
capabilities. Let's stick with plain qemuCaps check then.
