Clearly command lines that use options added in newer QEMU won't
work on older QEMU, but we do make a serious effort to continue
to support older commandlines on newer QEMU, even if there is no
versioned migration support. Upgrading QEMU and expecting your old
configs to keep working is a reasonable user expectation.
