- Sort -M help by MachineClass::name so order matches the printed names
when QOM types are prefixed (arm-virt-11.1-machine vs virt-11.1).

this indeed allows QOM types to coexist in same binary.
In such binary, how are we now supposed to differentiate two virt
machines from -M <name>, given they both have same alias name?
