This option can be used as a shortcut for creating a single XML with
just a CPU model name and no features:
$ virsh hypervisor-cpu-baseline --model Skylake-Server
<cpu mode='custom' match='exact'>
<model fallback='forbid'>Skylake-Server</model>
<feature policy='disable' name='avx512f'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='avx512dq'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='clwb'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='avx512cd'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='avx512bw'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='avx512vl'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='pku'/>
</cpu>

abilities when computing the baseline CPU.)
