Allow -soundhw option to kvm
For all of us that love to listen to music on our kvm virtual machines,the -soundhw option is paramount.
kvm: support usb devices
All in one go, comma separated usb devices of all types.
kvm: Add kvm_extra parameter
As requested in Issue 261 and many other times.
kvm: Add -vga option
As requested in Issue 69.
kvm: use help based feature detection
As discussed on the list some people backport features to different kvmversions, making the version based detection system unreliable. Wechange wherever we can to detection on the help output.
This also fixes Issue 250...
Add a non negative int hypervisor parameter check
...and use it for a few parameters for which it makes sense.
kvm: always pass -usb
This will be the default anyway and it was a mistake to pass it only ifthe mouse was specified.
kvm: abstract getting --help output
This will be used later, for now nothing changes.
kvm: allow setting smp cores, threads, sockets
This was requested in Issue 322.Note that maxcpus is not implemented yet, as it should be considered ina cpu-hotplug global context.
