I guess this may affect the qemu driver in future ...  Thanks to
Markus Armbruster for bringing this to my/our attention.

    Deprecate -M command line options
    
    Superseded by -machine. Therefore, this patch removes -M from the help
    list and pushes -machine at the same place in the output.

commit 9052ea6bf4962b1342aa56d4341bb55176ed9e45

    Generalize -machine command line option
    
    -machine somehow suggests that it selects the machine, but it doesn't.
    Fix that before this command is set in stone.
    
    Actually, -machine should supersede -M and allow to introduce arbitrary
    per-machine options to the command line. That will change the internal
    realization again, but we will be able to keep the user interface
    stable.

Rich.
