Fiona Ebner f06b222ece fixes for QEMU 9.0
Most importantly, fix forwards and backwards migration with VirtIO-GPU
display.

Other fixes are for a regression in pflash device (introduced in 8.2)
and some fixes for x86(_64) TCG emulation. One of the patches needed
to be adapted, because it removed a helper that is still in use in
9.0.0.

There also is a revert for a fix in VirtIO PCI devices that turned out
to cause some issues, see the revert itself for more details.

Lastly, there is a change to move compatibility flags for a new
VirtIO-net feature to the correct machine type. The feature was
introduced in QEMU 8.2, but the compatibility flags got added to
machine version 8.0 instead of 8.1. This breaks backwards migration
with machine version 8.1 from a 8.2/9.0 binary to an 8.1 binary, in
cases where the guest kernel enables the feature (e.g. Ubuntu 23.10).
While that breaks migration with machine version 8.1 from an unpatched
to a patched binary, Proxmox VE only ever had 8.2 on the test
repository and 9.0 not yet in any public repository. An upstream
developer suggested it is the proper fix [0]. Upstream submission [1].

Subject: [PATCH] hw/core/machine: move compatibility flags for VirtIO-net USO
to machine 8.1
Migration from an 8.2 or 9.0 binary to an 8.1 binary with machine
version 8.1 can fail with:
> kvm: Features 0x1c0010130afffa7 unsupported. Allowed features: 0x10179bfffe7
> kvm: Failed to load virtio-net:virtio
> kvm: error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device '0000:00:12.0/virtio-net'
> kvm: load of migration failed: Operation not permitted
The series
53da8b5a99 virtio-net: Add support for USO features
9da1684954 virtio-net: Add USO flags to vhost support.
f03e0cf63b tap: Add check for USO features
2ab0ec3121 tap: Add USO support to tap device.
only landed in QEMU 8.2, so the compatibility flags should be part of
machine version 8.1.
Moving the flags unfortunately breaks forward migration with machine
version 8.1 from a binary without this patch to a binary with this
patch when the feature is enabled by the guest.
