The issue I am trying to address is that users can put stuff
outside "opt/" without realizing they are violating any rules.
I do not think printing a warning is sufficient for this:
it is masked by tools too often.
Thus, anything outside "opt/" must be forbidden and cause a failure.
Gerd and others asked for a way to bypass this "for development"
which presumably means they way a quick way to develop guest
code interacting with QEMU without changing qemu proper,
with the intent to merge support into QEMU a bit later.
We could add a special flag for this instead but the mapping
is a couple of lines of code, so seems easier,
the point is to have "unsupported" there.
