Starting from QEMU creation version 9.1, pin to the creation version
instead. Support for machine version 5.1 is expected to drop with QEMU
11.1 and it would still be good to handle Windows VMs that do not have
explicit machine version for whatever reason. For example, explicitly
setting the machine without a version on the CLI/API after creation is
one way to end up with such a machine.
