These are allegedly necessary to keep the output consistent,
but now that we're using a privileged config for the driver we
get the desired behavior out of the box, and as a bonus the
paths match what you would actually see on a regular host.

QEMU deprecated the '-no-acpi' option, thus we should switch to the
modern way to use '-machine'.
Certain ARM machine types don't support ACPI. Given our historically
broken design of using '<acpi/>' without attribute to enable ACPI and
qemu's default of enabling it without '-no-acpi' such configurations
would not work.
Now when qemu reports whether given machine type supports ACPI we can do
a better decision and un-break those configs. Unfortunately not
retroactively.

Currently, the ThreadContext object is generated whenever we see
.host-nodes attribute for a memory-backend-* object. The idea was
that when the backend is pinned to a specific set of host NUMA
nodes, then the allocation could be happening on CPUs from those
nodes too. But this may not be always possible.
Users might configure their guests in such way that vCPUs and
corresponding guest NUMA nodes are on different host NUMA nodes
than emulator thread. In this case, ThreadContext won't work,
because ThreadContext objects live in context of the emulator
thread (vCPU threads are moved around by us later, when emulator
thread finished its setup and spawned vCPU threads - see
qemuProcessSetupVcpus()). Therefore, memory allocation is done by
emulator thread which is pinned to a subset of host NUMA nodes,
but tries to create a ThreadContext object with a disjoint subset
of host NUMA nodes, which fails.

When generating memory for memory devices memory-backend-* might
be used. This means, we may need to generate thread-context
objects too.

Currently, we have maybe a dozen tests for hugepages related
stuff in qemuxml2argvtest. In all cases DO_TEST() is used, which
means we have to enumerate all capabilities needed (though, it's
usually just QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_MEMORY_RAM and
QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_MEMORY_FILE, exceptionally
QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_MEMORY_FILE_DISCARD too).
Instead of deleting the caps flags one-by-one, just switch the
tests to use DO_CAPS_LATEST().
The qemuxml2xmltest will undergo similar treatment in next
commit.
