d5d2d8e34a qemu: Make probed machine types depend on accelerator
Some specifics of machine types may depend on the accelerator and thus
the data should be moved to virQEMUCapsAccel. The TCG machine types are
just copied from the ones probed for KVM to simplify the changes to
qemucapabilitiestest data files.

a068413e7c qemu: Move machine type data in capabilities cache
In preparation for making machine types dependent on the accelerator,
the <machine> elements are formatted between <cpu type='kvm'> and
<cpu type='tcg'>.

c4d6465aa7 tests: testQemuCapsIterate: Pass prefix and version to callback
Right now we're passing a "base" string that contains both,
separated by an underscore. Some changes that we're going to
introduce later will require us to have the version number on its
own, and instead of delegating the task of splitting the two apart
to the callback it make more sense to perform it upfront.

This change results in quite a bit of churn because we're now
using the version number only, without the prefix, to calculate
the dummy microcodeVersion.

86a8e5a84c qemu: Add capability for the ccf-assist pSeries feature
Linux kernel 5.1 added a new PPC KVM capability named
KVM_PPC_CPU_CHAR_BCCTR_FLUSH_ASSIST, which is exposed to the QEMU guest
since QEMU commit 8ff43ee404d under a new sPAPR capability called
SPAPR_CAP_CCF_ASSIST. This cap indicates whether the processor supports
hardware acceleration for the count cache flush workaround, which
is a software workaround that flushes the count cache on context
switch. If the processor has this hardware acceleration, the software
flush can be shortened, resulting in performance gain.

This hardware acceleration is defaulted to 'off' in QEMU. The reason
is that earlier versions of the Power 9 processor didn't support
it (it is available on Power 9 DD2.3 and newer), and defaulting this
option to 'on' would break migration compatibility between the Power 9
processor class.

However, the user running a P9 DD2.3+ hypervisor might want to create
guests with ccf-assist=on, accepting the downside of only being able
to migrate them only between other P9 DD2.3+ hosts running upstream
kernel 5.1+, to get a performance boost.

This patch adds this new capability to Libvirt, with the name of
QEMU_CAPS_MACHINE_PSERIES_CAP_CCF_ASSIST.

db873ab3bc qemu: Adapt to changed ppc64 CPU model names
QEMU 2.11 for ppc64 changed all CPU model names to lower case. Since
libvirt can't change the model names for compatibility reasons, we need
to translate the matching lower case models to the names known by
libvirt.

This reverts commit 0cebb6422a.

This capability is not used anywhere and also it is not contained
in any release so it's safe to just remove it.

6abda7a445 backup: Add two new qemu capabilities
Add two capabilities for testing features required for the upcoming
virDomainBackupBegin: use block-dirty-bitmap-merge as the generic
witness of bitmap support needed for checkpoints (since all of the
bitmap management functionalities were finalized in the same qemu 4.0
release), and the bitmap parameter to nbd-server-add for pull-mode
backup support.  Even though both capabilities are likely to be
present or absent together (that is, it is unlikely to encounter a
qemu that backports only one of the two), it still makes sense to keep
two capabilities as the two uses are orthogonal (full backups don't
require checkpoints, push mode backups don't require NBD bitmap
support, and checkpoints can be used for more than just incremental
backups).

Existing code is not affected by the new capabilities.
