[Qemu-devel] [Patch v1 24/29] qmp: add QMP interface "query-cpu-model-expansion"

[David Hildenbrand]

Let's provide a standardized interface to expand CPU models, like the
host model. This interface can be used by tooling to get details about a
specific CPU model, e.g. the "host" model.

To take care of all architectures, two detail levels for an expansion
are introduced. Certain architectures might not support all detail levels.
While "full" will expand and indicate all relevant properties/features
of a CPU model, "static" expands to a static base CPU model, that will
never change between QEMU versions and therefore have the same features
when used under different compatibility machines.

+# Expanding CPU models is in general independant of the accelerator, except
