PATCH 4/7 cpu model bug fixes and definition corrections

Failure by qemu to open a default config file isn't cause to
error exit -- it just quietly continues on. After puzzling
issues with otherwise opaque config file locations and startup handling numerous times, some help from qemu seemed justified.

In the case of a "?" pseudo filename arg to -readconfig, verbose open of all config files will be enabled. Normal handling of config files is otherwise unaffected by this option.

Note: other CLI flag schemes have been discussed at length to accommodate this option. However given the constraints of the existing user interface, a solution which minimally impacts the user is ultimately required.

Starting with this patch, the series lacks proper subjects. Please also avoid such long subject lines. The background can be explained in the introduction mail (threading your mails would be nice as well, check git format-patch). Rather us short tags for the patches, describing the subsystem/target-arch they touch.

Note: other CLI flag schemes have been discussed at length to accommodate this option. However given the constraints of the existing user interface, a solution which minimally impacts the user is ultimately required.

Does this patch also fix the loading of CPU configs when starting qemu directly from the build folder? That would be warmly welcome!
