qom: introduce object_register_sugar_prop

Similar to the existing "-rtc driftfix" option, we will convert some
legacy "-machine" command line options to global properties on accelerators.
Because accelerators are not devices, we cannot use qdev_prop_register_global.
Instead, provide a slot in the generic object_compat_props arrays for
command line syntactic sugar.
