General idea is fine. A few suggestions:

- Move addhw->controller list option to the same list position as a VM
controller device appears. So, after 'disk'

- If a controller doesn't have any 'model' options, we should hide the 'model'
row/combo

The harder bit is that there's now the addhardware->controller and
details->controller pages are out of sync. I'd suggest only showing the same
controller models that we will show in the details page, (USB2/USB3 for usb,
virtio-serial/default for scsi). I don't know if we should even offer an
option for a PCI controller, since I think that's all an immutable part of the
chipset and there's no way for the user to actually configure it directly, but
maybe that's changed with qemu q35.
