Will fabric manager emulation obsolete these commands?

We tend to avoid abbreviations in QMP identifiers: dynamic-capacity.

to acknowledge
docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst:
For legibility, wrap text paragraphs so every line is at most 70
characters long.
Separate sentences with two spaces.

What is a CXL DCD? Is it a device?
I'd prefer @qom-path, unless you can make a consistency argument for
@path.

What's a region, and how do they get their IDs?

The host? In cxl-add-dynamic-capacity's doc comment, it's the device.

Is "and can be re-added" relevant here?
