We can get rid of the "power5+" / "power7+" hack

I think in the long run, we should get rid of the names with a "+"
in it completely, so the second patch suggests to deprecate those,
but I'd also be fine if we keep the aliases around, so in that case
please ignore the second patch.

libvirt seems to be explicitly referencing power7+ in the code, so I
guess we'll need code to translate the + versions to the spellt-out
version to preserve compatibility.
