We need taint marker support from day 1. Or perhaps a nicer thing:
require each module to declare a support URL string. QEMU will print
out support URLs when displaying version information or on startup.
This way it's easy to indentify who to ask for help if QEMU appears
broken - we'll know if a third-party plugin is involved.
