* query_understood_cpu_flags returns all flags that QEMU/KVM knows about
* query_supported_cpu_flags returns all flags that QEMU/KVM can use on
  this particular host.

To get supported flags, a temporary VM is started with QEMU, so we can
issue the "query-cpu-model-expansion" QMP command. This is how libvirt
queries supported flags for its "host-passthrough" CPU type.

query_supported_cpu_flags is thus rather slow and shouldn't be called
unnecessarily.

Changes from RFC:

* Clearer regexes
* Use existing QMP infrastructure
* Add locking for temporary VM start
* Add comments
