Multiple targets register a virt board as MACHINE_TYPE_NAME("virt").
Those QOM types collide if more than one board is linked into one
qemu-system process. This series splits the QOM type from the -M name
so each virt board can keep a unique type while -M virt, help, and
migration stay the same.

- Add machine_class_set_name() so boards can set MachineClass::name
  when it must differ from the QOM type. machine_class_base_init still
  defaults the name to the QOM type without -machine. Document that
  MachineClass::name is the -M name, not the QOM type. Sort -M help
  by that name so order matches the printed names after types are
  prefixed (arm-virt-11.1-machine vs virt-11.1).
- Give each colliding virt board a unique QOM type and keep the
  existing -M name via machine_class_set_name(): riscv-virt, arm-virt,
  or1k-virt, hexagon-virt, loongarch-virt, m68k-virt, and xtensa-virt.
  Versioned ARM, LoongArch, and M68K boards keep virt-<ver>. Latest
  ARM virt still sets mc->alias to virt.
- query-machines returns MachineInfo typename, the QOM type from
  object_class_get_name(), for qom-list-properties. The -M name alone
  is not that type once virt boards are prefixed.

Changes v1 -> v2:
- query-machines returns MachineInfo typename. v1 returned only the
  -M name, so a client that appended "-machine" looked up the wrong
  type for a prefixed board such as arm-virt-11.1-machine versus
  -M virt-11.1.

Yonggang Luo (9):
  machine: allow -M name to differ from QOM type
  hw/riscv/virt: use unique QOM name
  hw/arm/virt: use unique QOM name
  hw/or1k/virt: use unique QOM name
  hw/hexagon/virt: use unique QOM name
  hw/loongarch/virt: use unique QOM name
  hw/m68k/virt: use unique QOM name
  hw/xtensa/virt: use unique QOM name
  qapi: return MachineInfo typename from query-machines
