This feature is called "vmx-invept-single-context-noglobals" in QEMU and
our CPU map even contains the appropriate alias. But we failed to
actually translate the name when talking to QEMU.

The mpx feature was removed from the corresponding qemu cpu models.
With mpx in the libvirt cpu models, libvirt believes the feature
to be implicitly enabled when creating qemu VMs, while in fact it is
disabled.
This became an issue when commit 94eacd5a5f introduced new vmx-*
features, of which some are dependent on mpx (see "feature_dependencies"
table in qemu target/i386/cpu.c), e.g. vmx-exit-clear-bndcfgs and
vmx-entry-load-bndcfgs. These features cannot be enabled by qemu
without also mpx being enabled, leading to the error message
error: Failed to create domain from testdomain.xml
error: operation failed: guest CPU doesn't match
specification: missing features: mpx,vmx-exit-clear-bndcfgs,
vmx-entry-load-bndcfgs
when trying to create a VM with a "host-model" cpu on a host that
does support mpx and the mentioned vmx-* features:
<domain>
...
<cpu mode='host-model' check='full' />
...
</domain>
Resolve the issue by removing mpx from libvirt's cpu models as well.

Differences from qemu:
* "vmx-ept-uc" (bit 8) and "vmx-ept-wb" (bit 14) are not added to
qemu's list of named features yet, but used in several qemu cpu
models never the less. Add to libvirt regardless.
* "vmx-invvpid-single-context" (bit 41) is erroneously called
"vmx-invept-single-context" in qemu. This is the name of the
feature associated with bit 25 in both libvirt and qemu.
* "vmx-invvpid-single-context-noglobals" (bit 43) is erroneously
called "vmx-invept-single-context-noglobals". Use the correct name.
