Introduce /domain/cpu/@check XML attribute

The attribute can be used to request a specific way of checking whether
the virtual CPU matches created by the hypervisor matches the
specification in domain XML.

+          <dd>Libvirt does no checking and it is up to the hypervisor to

+            With QEMU this means no checking is done at all since the default
+            behavior of QEMU is to emit warnings, but start the domain anyway.

+          <dt><code>full</code></dt>
+          <dd>The virtual CPU created by the hypervisor will be checked
