qemu: parse and create -cpu ...,-kvmclock

QEMU supports a bunch of CPUID features that are tied to the kvm CPUID
nodes rather than the processor's.  They are "kvmclock",
"kvm_nopiodelay", "kvm_mmu", "kvm_asyncpf".  These are not known to
libvirt and their CPUID leaf might move if (for example) the Hyper-V
extensions are enabled. Hence their handling would anyway require some
special-casing.

However, among these the most useful is kvmclock; an additional
"property" of this feature is that a <timer> element is a better model
than a CPUID feature.  Although, creating part of the -cpu command-line
from something other than the <cpu> XML element introduces some
ugliness.
