Also, we want to know if a CPU definition is static and will never change. Beause these definitions can then be used independantly of a compatibility machine and will always have the same feature set, they can e.g. be used to indicate the "host" model in libvirt later on. Let's add two return values to query-cpu-definitions, stating for each returned CPU definition, if it is migration-safe and if it is static. While "migration-safe" is optional, "static" will be set to "false" automatically by all implementing architectures. If a model really was static all the time and will be in the future, this can simply be changed later.
