We can replace change to system/vl.c with:
const char *machine_type = target_machine_interface_typename();
machines = object_class_get_list(machine_type, false);

This way, there is no special case to handle anywhere, and we can safely
replace occurrences of TYPE_MACHINE queries with
target_machine_interface_typename().
As well, just a nit, but it's not important to know it's an interface, I
would prefer a simpler name: target_machine_type();
