This series adds feature flag properties to X86CPU, and adds a sample script to
demonstrate how the new properties can be used to give management software more
flexibility to control CPU features using -global and -readconfig.
While at it, simplify the code for "level" and "xlevel" properties, and add a
"xlevel2" property, that was still missing.
This series doesn't change x86_cpu_parse_featurestr() to use the new properties
yet, but that will be possible in the future (we just need to be careful about
the ordering requirements of the current host_features code).
Changes v1 -> v2:
* Use "cpuid-" prefix
* Register release function for properties
* Don't remove underscores from feature names on the feature array yet
* Remove underscores on x86_cpu_register_feature_prop() instead,
so we don't need to touch x86_cpu_parse_featurestr() by now
* Make x86-cpu-model-dump return a reasonable exit code
* Add dev->realized check to property setter
