When issuing the qmp/hmp 'system_wakeup' command, what happens in a
nutshell is:

- qmp_system_wakeup_request set runstate to RUNNING, sets a wakeup_reason
and notify the event
- in the main_loop, all vcpus are paused, a system reset is issued, all
subscribers of wakeup_notifiers receives a notification, vcpus are then
resumed and the wake up QAPI event is fired

Note that this procedure alone doesn't ensure that the guest will awake
from SUSPENDED state - the subscribers of the wake up event must take
action to resume the guest, otherwise the guest will simply reboot. At
this moment, only the ACPI machines via acpi_pm1_cnt_init and xen_hvm_init
have wake-up from suspend support.

However, only the presence of 'system_wakeup' is required for QGA to
support 'guest-suspend-ram' and 'guest-suspend-hybrid' at this moment.
This means that the user/management will expect to suspend the guest using
one of those suspend commands and then resume execution using system_wakeup,
regardless of the support offered in system_wakeup in the first place.

This patch creates a new API called query-current-machine [1], that holds
a new flag called 'wakeup-suspend-support' that indicates if the guest
supports wake up from suspend via system_wakeup. The machine is considered
to implement wake-up support if a call to a new 'qemu_register_wakeup_support'
is made during its init, as it is now being done inside acpi_pm1_cnt_init
and xen_hvm_init. This allows for any other machine type to declare wake-up
support regardless of ACPI state or wakeup_notifiers subscription, making easier
for newer implementations that might have their own mechanisms in the future.

This is the expected output of query-current-machine when running a x86
guest:

{"execute" : "query-current-machine"}
{"return": {"wakeup-suspend-support": true}}

Running the same x86 guest, but with the --no-acpi option:

{"execute" : "query-current-machine"}
{"return": {"wakeup-suspend-support": false}}

This is the output when running a pseries guest:

{"execute" : "query-current-machine"}
{"return": {"wakeup-suspend-support": false}}

With this extra tool, management can avoid situations where a guest
that does not have proper suspend/wake capabilities ends up in
inconsistent state (e.g.
https://github.com/open-power-host-os/qemu/issues/31).

[1] the decision of creating the query-current-machine API is based
on discussions in the QEMU mailing list where it was decided that
query-target wasn't a proper place to store the wake-up flag, neither
was query-machines because this isn't a static property of the
machine object. This new API can then be used to store other
dynamic machine properties that are scattered around the code
ATM. More info at:
