Similar to the qemu.conf knob 'deprecation_behavior' add a per-VM knob
in the QEMU namespace:

+Control of QEMU deprecation warnings
+------------------------------------
+
+The following knob controls how QEMU behaves towards deprecated commands and
+arguments used by libvirt:
+
+::
+
+   <domain type='qemu' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'>
+     <name>testvm</name>
+
+      [...]
+
+     <qemu:deprecation behavior='crash'/>
+
+This setting is meant for developers and CI efforts to make it obvious when
+libvirt relies on fields which are deprecated so that it can be fixes as soon
+as possible.
+
+Possible options are:
+
+``none``
+   (default) qemu is supposed to accept and output deprecated fields and 
commands
+
+``omit``
+    qemu is instructed to omit deprecated fields on output, behaviour towards
+    fields and commadns from libvirtd is not changed
