I don't remember other cases where a property value is constant
for all instances of a given class, but still requires
instantiating an object just to look at the value of the
property. Is this really a pattern we want to start using in
QEMU?
Why hiding numa_mem_supported behind qom-list-properties is
better than simply extending the QAPI schema to add a new field
to MachineInfo? Extending MachineInfo is simple and obvious, and
it makes the new machine class attribute be explicitly documented
in the QAPI schema.
