QemuOpts: command line switches for the config file.
Adds -readconfig and -writeconfig command line switches to read/write
QemuOpts from config file.
In theory you should be able to do:
qemu < machine config cmd line switches here > -writeconfig vm.cfg
qemu -readconfig vm.cfg
In practice it will not work. Not all command line switches are
converted to QemuOpts, so you'll have to keep the not-yet converted ones
on the second line. Also there might be bugs lurking which prevent even
the converted ones from working correctly.
