* PPC uses ttyAMA0 as its serial device, similar to ARM.
* PowerNV is a typical platform for testing and distro development

This appears to avoid requiring KVM when it’s not available. This is
what I originally though -cpu host did. Unfortunately not much
documentation available from the QEMU side on this, but this appears
to square with help:
$ qemu-system-x86 -cpu help
...
x86 host KVM processor with all supported host features
x86 max Enables all features supported by the accelerator in the current host
...
Whether we actually want to support this not clear, since this only
happens when your CPU doesn’t have full KVM support. Some Nix builders
are lying about kvm support though. Things aren’t too slow without it
though.

This makes the type of these functions more apparent from the name.

This modifies the `router` to not give out a range of IP addresses but
only give out a fixed address based on the MAC address using the
`services.dhcpd4.machines` option.
To get access to the MAC address the `qemuNicMac` function is defined
and exported from `qemu-flags.nix`.

'kvm64' is the most generic CPU, which does not support SSE4.2, AVX and other ISA extentions.

It is deprecated and will be removed after 18.09.

this is the "generic" version & should work everywhere.
also add darwin case

Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.
The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:
```
ISA: ARMv8 {-A, -R, -M}
/ \
Mode: Aarch32 Aarch64
| / \
Encoding: A64 A32 T32
```
At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.
The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

... by moving the existing definition to qemu-flags.nix and reusing
that.

I'm gonna use it in the next commit.
