Introduce a machine property, kvm-type, to allow the user to create a
Trusted Domain eXtensions (TDX) VM, a.k.a. a Trusted Domain (TD), e.g.:

  # $QEMU \
	-machine ...,kvm-type=tdx \
	...

Only two types are supported: "legacy" and "tdx", with "legacy" being
the default.

I am not a QEMU command line expert, so my mental model of this may be
wrong, but:

This seems to have a very broad scope on the command line and I
am wondering if it's possible to associate it with a TDX command
line object specifically to narrow its scope.

I.e., is it possible to express this on the command line when
launching something that is _not_ meant to be powered by TDX,
such as an SEV guest? If it doesn't make sense to express that
command line argument in a situation like that, perhaps it could
be constrained only to the TDX-specific commandline objects.
