Some AMD processors only support a non-architectural means of
enabling Speculative Store Bypass Disable. To allow simplified
handling in virtual environments, hypervisors will expose an
architectural definition through CPUID bit 0x80000008_EBX[25].
This needs to be exposed to guest OS running on AMD x86 hosts to
allow them to protect against CVE-2018-3639.
Note that since this CPUID bit won't be present in the host CPUID
results on physical hosts, it will not be enabled automatically
in guests configured with "host-model" CPU unless using QEMU
version >= 2.9.0. Thus for older versions of QEMU, this feature
must be manually enabled using policy=force. Guests using the
"host-passthrough" CPU mode do not need special handling.

Historically we matched log filters with strstr(), and when switching to
fnmatch in cbb0fd3cfd, it was stated that
we would continue to match substrings, with "foo" being equivalent to
"*foo*". Unfortuntely I forget to provide the code to actually make that
happen. This fixes it to prepend and append "*". We don't bother to
check if the pattern already has a leading/trailing '*', because
"**foo**" will match the same as "*foo*".

Strongly recommend against use of the log_levels setting since it
creates overly verbose logs and has a serious performance impact.
Describe the log filter syntax better and mention use of shell
glob syntax. Also provide more realistic example of good settings
to use. The libvirtd example is biased towards QEMU, but when the
drivers split off each daemon can get its own more appropriate
example.

Rather than specialcasing handling of the '*' character, use fnmatch()
to get normal shell wildcard syntax, as described in 'man glob(7)'.
To get an indication of the performance impact of using globs instead
of plain string matches, a test program was written. The list of all
260 log categories was extracted from the source. Then a typical log
filters setup was picked by creating an array of the strings "qemu",
"security", "util", "cgroup", "event", "object". Every filter string
was matched against every log category. Timing information showed that
using strstr() this took 8 microseconds, while fnmatch() took 114
microseconds.
IOW, fnmatch is 14 times slower than our existing strstr check. These
numbers show a worst case scenario that will never be hit, because it
is rare that every log category would have data output. The log category
matches are cached, so each category is only checked once no matter how
many log statements are emitted. IOW despite being slower, this will
be lost in the noise and have no consequence on real world logging
performance.

Currently we do a access(R_OK) check to see whether a loadable module
exists, treating failure as non-fatal. This is unreasonably loose, as a
module which exists but has had incorrect permissions set will turn into
a silent skip. We only want to skip loading if the module genuinely does
not exist on disk, due to the optional package not being installed.
Furthermore, checking the return value of virDriverLoadModuleFile() is
not a suitable witness that the module does not exist. This method can
return NULL if dlopen() fails, for example due to being unable to
resolve symbols in the library. This is should always be reported as an
error because it is a sign of the bad installation where either the
module build doesn't match the libvirtd build, or where some 3rd party
libraries are missing or broken.
Both these problems can be fixed by using virFileExists in the caller
instead.
