898edc9617 conf: Prefer pcie-to-pci-bridge to dmi-to-pci-bridge
Both pcie-to-pci-bridge and dmi-to-pci-bridge can be used to
create a traditional PCI topology in a pure PCIe guest such as
those using the x86_64/q35 or aarch64/virt machine type;
however, the former should be preferred, as it doesn't need to
obey limitation of real hardware and is completely
architecture-agnostic.

bb0e0bcf6a docs: formatdomain: Clarify CPU feature policy option "require"
Using the 'require' value for the 'policy' attribute indicates
that the guest will have the feature so the host CPU does not
need to support it if the hypervisor can emulate it.

E.g. 'x2apic' is emulated by QEMU even if the host does not support it:

    <feature policy='require' name='x2apic'/>
