And start with the following list ?
pc
pc-i440fx-1.7
pc-i440fx-1.6
pc-i440fx-1.5
pc-i440fx-1.4
pc-1.3
pc-1.2
pc-1.1
pc-1.0
pc-0.15
pc-0.14
pc-0.13
pc-0.12
pc-0.11
pc-0.10
xenfv

I wonder how many of this will work. I suspect most of them. The only
down side is that it will be necessary to patch libxl if one want to
try, let say q35.

If we only keep xenfv and pc in the list, it might be better to just not
expose the option to the config file, for now.

But yes, having a list for the supported feature point of view will be
better.
