This is the bug I was talking about in the previous email. I should rather use
"enum qemuCapsFlags" instead of "int" in case someone passes -fshort-enum
option to gcc which would result in the enum being represented as char rather
than int.

The problem is that 0 is a valid flag value (QEMU_CAPS_KQEMU) addressing the
lowest bit. We could reserve the value for a terminal but in that case we
could never make use of the lowest bit in the bitmap. Not that it would make a
huge difference but QEMU_CAPS_LAST just seemed good enough to me :-) Also it's
kinda nice to have a call like

    qemuCapsSetList(caps, QEMU_CAPS_1, QEMU_CAPS_2, ..., QEMU_CAPS_LAST)
