Ah right, I had :8022-:22 or so in mind and mixed up optional host name
with optional source port.

Basically I'm checking for anything which is using the generic QemuOpts
parsing and where a literal + or - may lead to unexpected parsing
changes with this patch. Without having looked up more context for this
hunk, it should not affect foo=-bar but only where foo= is optional,
such as type names for driver= starting with either character (not aware
of such types though).
