While only used internally from libvirt the options still are misleading
enough to cause issues every now and then.
Group modes, options and an adding extra file and extend the wording of
the latter which had the biggest lack of clarity.
Both add a file to the end of the rules, but one re-generates the
rules from XML and the other keeps the existing rules as-is not
considering the XML content.

When starting a domain without a CPU model specified in the domain XML,
QEMU will choose a default one. Which is fine unless the domain gets
migrated to another host because libvirt doesn't perform any CPU ABI
checks and the virtual CPU provided by QEMU on the destination host can
differ from the one on the source host.
With QEMU 4.2.0 we can probe for the default CPU model used by QEMU for
a particular machine type and store it in the domain XML. This way the
chosen CPU model is more visible to users and libvirt will make sure
the guest will see the exact same CPU after migration.
Architecture specific notes
- aarch64: We only set the default CPU for TCG domains as KVM requires
explicit "-cpu host" to work.
- ppc64: The default CPU for KVM is "host" thanks to some hacks in QEMU,
we will translate the default model to the model corresponding to the
host CPU ("POWER8" on a Power8 host, "POWER9" on Power9 host, etc.).
This is not a problem as the corresponding CPU model is in fact an
alias for "host". This is probably not ideal, but it's not wrong and
the default virtual CPU configured by libvirt is the same QEMU would
use. TCG uses various CPU models depending on machine type and its
version.
- s390x: The default CPU for KVM is "host" while TCG defaults to "qemu".
- x86_64: The default CPU model (qemu64) is not runnable on any host
with KVM, but QEMU just disables unavailable features and starts
happily.

The function would return a valid virDomainCapsCPUModelsPtr with empty
CPU models list if query-cpu-definitions exists in QEMU, but returns
GenericError meaning it's not in fact implemented. This behaviour is a
bit strange especially after such virDomainCapsCPUModels structure is
stored in capabilities XML and parsed back, which will result in NULL
virDomainCapsCPUModelsPtr rather than a structure containing nothing.
Let's just keep virDomainCapsCPUModelsPtr NULL if the QMP command is not
implemented and change the return value to int so that callers can
easily check for failure or success.
