[PATCH] virQEMUDriverGetDomainCapabilities: Validate machine type

[Michal Privoznik]

When calling virConnectGetDomainCapabilities() (exposed as virsh
domcapabilities) users have option to specify whatever sub-set of
{ emulatorbin, arch, machine, virttype } they want. Then we have
a logic (hidden in virQEMUCapsCacheLookupDefault()) that picks
qemuCaps that satisfy values passed by user. And whatever was not
specified is then set to the default value as specified by picked
qemuCaps. For instance: if no machine type was provided but
emulatorbin was, then the machine type is set to the default one
as defined by the emulatorbin.

Or, when just virttype was set then the remaining three values
are set to their respective defaults. Except, we have a crasher
in this case:

  # virsh domcapabilities --virttype hvf
  error: Disconnected from qemu:///system due to end of file
  error: failed to get emulator capabilities
  error: End of file while reading data: Input/output error

This is because for 'hvf' virttype (at least my) QEMU does not
have any machine type. Therefore, @machine is set to NULL and the
rest of the code does not expect that.
