If -M is going away, then libvirt _should_ scrape -help output to see
whether to use -M or -machine, rather than blindly using -M.
-M going away will take a while (and will likely never happen).
While that may be true, we've already been bitten in the past by using
undocumented commands. See for example commit e997c268efd, where
qemu-img silently quit supporting -e, but libvirt had been using it
under the assumption that it would continue to work.
I'll work up a patch for this.
