I think this is another temporarily-awkward case that gets resolved
with:

  i386/sev: Update query-sev QAPI format to handle SEV-SNP

With that patch 'handle' is always available for SEV guests, and never
available for SNP, and that's managed through a discriminated union
type. I think that info->handle should be treated the same as the
other fields as part of this patch and any changes in how they are
reported should be kept in the above-mentioned patch.

This might be another artifact from v2's handling. Will get this fixed
up.
