When running with KVM, we update the "family" CPU alias to point
to the right host CPU type, so that it is for example possible to
use "-cpu POWER8" on a POWER8NVL host. However, the function for
printing the list of available CPU models is called earlier than
the KVM setup code, so the output of "-cpu help" is wrong in that
case. Since it would be somewhat ugly anyway to have different
help texts depending on whether "-enable-kvm" has been specified
or not, we should better always print the same text, so fix this
issue by printing "alias for preferred XXX CPU" instead.

But I wonder if it wouldn't be safer and easier to follow if we
just added a bool field to PowerPCCPUAlias to indicate which
aliases are not accel-independent. When I looked at
ppc_cpu_aliases[] the first time, I had no idea the table was not
100% static and would be changed by KVM code.
