On ppc64, the PowerVM hypervisor runs with limited memory and a VCPU
creation during hotplug may fail during kvm_ioctl for KVM_CREATE_VCPU,
leading to termination of guest since errp is set to &error_fatal while
calling kvm_init_vcpu. This unexpected behaviour can be avoided by
pre-creating and parking vcpu on success or return error otherwise.
This enables graceful error delivery for any vcpu hotplug failures while
the guest can keep running.

Also introducing KVM AccelCPUClass to init cpu_target_realize for kvm.

Tested OK by repeatedly doing a hotplug/unplug of vcpus as below:

 #virsh setvcpus hotplug 40
 #virsh setvcpus hotplug 70
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'device_add':
kvmppc_cpu_realize: vcpu hotplug failed with -12
