No longer a strict superset of the Fedora 21 qemu-kvm, which had:

            "parameters": [
                {
                    "name": "max-ram-below-4g",
                    "help": "maximum ram below the 4G boundary (32bit
boundary)"
,
                    "type": "size"
                },
                {
                    "name": "kvm-type",
                    "help": "Specifies the KVM virtualization mode (HV,
PR)",
                    "type": "string"
                },
                {
                    "name": "firmware",
                    "help": "firmware image",
                    "type": "string"
                },

(remembering that query-command-line-options does things in reverse
order).  I don't think iommu and suppress-vmdesc hurt to add, but we
shouldn't lose kvm-type or max-ram-below-4g, if those were advertised at
the point prior to the QemuOpts conversion.  (I didn't actually
research, though, whether I'm comparing against downstream Fedora
qemu-kvm patches instead of upstream...)
