I think qemuCapsSetList() would be nicer than setting one bit at a time,
but that doesn't change semantics.

This does not seem like a safe file name (it is easily guessable).
Should we instead be generating something under /var/run?

And here, we should match whatever filename we actually use.
Other than that, this looks nice.
