In case there were options set in the default config file, print
a warning so users can update their scripts.
If somebody wants to keep the config file as-is, avoid the
warning and use a command-line that will work in future QEMU
versions, they can use:
$QEMU -nodefconfig -readconfig /etc/qemu/qemu.conf
I was going to add an additional message suggesting it as a
solution, but I thought it could make it more confusing. The
solution can be documented in the QEMU 2.9 ChangeLog.
