Instead of translating the feature name entries when adding
property names, store the actual property names in the feature

It wasn't quite obvious to me where this means we can't use the names
with underscores when talking to QEMU. So I tried it and apparently
underscores are just silently translated to dashes. It's backward
compatible this way. However, QEMU will always give us the names with
dashes, which means we have even more differences between libvirt's
feature names and QEMU's feature names. So assuming we'll have an
interface for querying supported CPU properties (and their aliases),
shouldn't the old underscore names be added as aliases? This way, we
could actually know that "ds-cpl" means "ds_cpl".
