Some machine types are only reported as canonical names for other machine types, which make it a bit harder to find what machine types are supported by a specific QEMU binary. Ideally, one would just use /capabilities/guest/arch[@name='...']/machine/text() XPath to get a list of all supported machine types, but it doesn't work right now.
For example, we report
<machine canonical='pc-i440fx-2.3' maxCpus='255'>pc</machine>
in guest capabilities, but the corresponding
<machine maxCpus='255'>pc-i440fx-2.3</machine>
is missing.
This is a result of QMP probing. With "-machine ?" parsing QEMU sends us two lines:
pc Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) (alias of pc-i440fx-2.3) pc-i440fx-2.3 Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) (default)
while query-machines QMP command reports both in the same entry:
{"name": "pc-i440fx-2.3", "is-default": true, "cpu-max": 255, "alias": "pc"}
Let's make sure we always report separate <machine/> for both the canonical name and its alias and using the canonical name as the default machine type (i.e., inserting it before its alias) in case is-default is true.

There's no existing test for this? I guess I would have expected to see differences in output and thus test adjustments as well.
The code seems to be doing what is stated though... and the tests/capabilityschemadata/caps-qemu-kvm.xml seems to show the output as desired.

Pushed, thanks. Jirka
