We don't really need to parse CPU data from QEMU older than 2.9 (i.e.,
before query-cpu-model-expansion) at this point. But even if there's a
need to do so, we can always use an older version of this script to do
the conversion.

Various version of json_reformat use different number of spaces for
indenting. Let's use a simple python reformatter to gain full control
over the formatting for consistent results.

The new command can be used to generate test data for virCPUUpdateLive.
When "cpu-cpuid.py diff x86-cpuid-Something.json" is run, it reads raw
CPUID data stored in x86-cpuid-Something.xml and CPUID data from QEMU
stored in x86-cpuid-Something.json to produce two more CPUID files:
x86-cpuid-Something-enabled.xml and x86-cpuid-Something-disabled.xml.
- x86-cpuid-Something-enabled.xml will contain CPUID bits present in
x86-cpuid-Something.json (i.e., enabled by QEMU for the "host" CPU)
- x86-cpuid-Something-disabled.xml will contain all CPUID bits from
x86-cpuid-Something.xml which are not present in
x86-cpuid-Something.json (i.e., CPUID bits which the host CPU
supports, but QEMU does not enable them for the "host" CPU)

The new script is going to be more general and the original
functionality can be requested by "cpu-cpuid.py convert".

Instantiating "host" CPU and querying it using qom-get has been the only
way of probing host CPU via QEMU until 2.9.0 implemented
query-cpu-model-expansion for x86_64. Even though libvirt never really
used the old way its result can be easily converted into the one
produced by query-cpu-model-expansion. Thus we can reuse the original
test data and possible get new data from hosts where QEMU does not
support the new QMP command.

While "x86" is a CPU sub driver name, it is not a recognized name of any
architecture known to libvirt. Let's use "x86_64" prefix which can be
used with virArch APIs.

So far we only test CPUID -> CPU def conversion on artificial CPUID data
computed from another CPU def. This patch adds the infrastructure to
test this conversion on real data gathered from a host CPU and two
helper scripts for adding new test data:
- cpu-gather.sh runs cpuid tool and qemu-system-x86_64 to get CPUID data
from the host CPU; this is what users can be asked to run if they run
into an issue with host CPU detection in libvirt
- cpu-parse.sh takes the data generated by cpu-gather.sh and creates
data files for CPU detection tests
The CPUID data queried from QEMU will eventually switch to the format
used by query-host-cpu QMP command once QEMU implements it. Until then
we just spawn QEMU with -cpu host and query the guest CPU in QOM. They
should both provide the same CPUID results, but query-host-cpu does not
require any guest CPU to be created by QEMU.
