hw: add .min_cpus and .default_cpus fields to machine_class
max_cpus needs to be an upper bound on the number of vCPUs initialized; otherwise TCG region initialization breaks. Some boards initialize a hard-coded number of vCPUs, which is not captured by the global max_cpus and therefore breaks TCG initialization. Fix it by adding the .min_cpus field to machine_class. This commit also changes some user-facing behaviour: we now die if -smp is below this hard-coded vCPU minimum instead of silently ignoring the passed -smp value (sometimes announcing this by printing a warning). However, the introduction of .default_cpus lessens the likelihood that users will notice this: if -smp isn't set, we now assign the value in .default_cpus to both smp_cpus and max_cpus. IOW, if a user does not set -smp, they always get a correct number of vCPUs. This change fixes 3468b59 ("tcg: enable multiple TCG contexts in softmmu", 2017-10-24), which broke TCG initialization for some ARM boards.
