Currently we only present the plain z900 feature bits to the guest,
but QEMU already emulates some additional features (but not all of
the next CPU generation, so we can not use the next CPU level as
default yet). Since newer Linux kernels are checking the feature bits
and refuse to work if a required feature is missing, it would be nice
to have a way to present more of the supported features when we are
running with the "qemu" CPU.
This patch now adds the supported features to the "full_feat" bitmap,
so that additional features can be enabled on the command line now,
for example with:

 qemu-system-s390x -cpu qemu,stfle=true,ldisp=true,eimm=true,stckf=true

 Note: This is a revised version of my previous patch "Set some additional
 feature bits for the qemu CPU" - but this time, the feature bits are not
 enabled by default, so this version should not create any issues with
 migration, I think. Rationale for not enabling it by default yet: It does
 not make sense to do add all the migration compatibility magic here yet as
 long as we do not provide enough facilities yet for running recent Linux
 kernels, so having just a way to enable the features on the command line
 for further development/experiments should be enough right now.
 Another change wrt. to my original patch: I've now also added the
 additional feature bits that Aurelien suggested.
