Show host model in domain capabilities

The domain capabilities XML is capable of showing whether each guest CPU
mode is supported or not with a possibility to provide additional
details. This patch enhances host-model capability to advertise the
exact CPU model which will be used as a host-model:

    <cpu>
        ...
        <mode name='host-model' supported='yes'>
            <model fallback='allow'>Broadwell</model>
            <vendor>Intel</vendor>
            <feature policy='disable' name='aes'/>
            <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
        </mode>
        ...
    </cpu>

If <code>host-model</code> is supported by the hypervisor, the
<code>mode</code> describes the guest CPU which will be used when
starting a domain with <code>host-model</code> CPU. The hypervisor
specifics (such as unsupported CPU models or features, machine type,
etc.) may be accounted for in this guest CPU specification and thus
the CPU can be different from the one shown in host capabilities XML.
This is indicated by the <code>fallback</code> attribute of the
<code>model</code> sub element: <code>allow</code> means not all
specifics were accounted for and thus the CPU a guest will see may
be different; <code>forbid</code> indicates that the CPU a guest will
see should match this CPU definition.
