I had it with a single capability bit QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_TPM *and* was 
reading the strings about the supported models and backend types from 
QEMU via QMP and held them in qemuCaps. When building the command line I 
then compared the intended model and backend type to be used against the 
list held in qemuCaps. That went fine until I wrote the test. There we 
end up using a pseudo executable (/usr/bin/qemu or so) as well and the 
test failed because it wasn't probed for the models and types. So I 
ended up changing the code so that I can set those bits inside the tests 
rather than having to set the needed strings in the array.

Presumably query-tpm-models and query-tpm-lists allows us to report an 
error from libvirt about non-availability of a model/backend type rather 
than having QEMU report an error which we reflect to the user.

Hm, this surprises me since this would put JSON specific code into the 
monitor APIs (qemu_monitor.c) while qemu_monitor.c typically only serves 
as a dispatcher for either text monitor or json monitor.

Ok, I'll split this off into a patch of its own.
