[PATCH v3 1/4] docs: add a table showing x86-64 ABI compatibility levels

["Daniel P. Berrangé" <berrange@redhat.com>]

It is useful to know which CPUs satisfy each x86-64 ABI
compatibility level, when dealing with guest OS that require
something newer than the baseline ABI.

These ABI levels are defined in:

  https://gitlab.com/x86-psABIs/x86-64-ABI/

and supported by GCC, Clang, glibc and more.

+ABI compatibility levels for CPU models
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The x86_64 architecture has a number of `ABI compatibility levels`_
+defined. Traditionally most operating systems and toolchains would
+only target the original baseline ABI. It is expected that in
+future OS and toolchains are likely to target newer ABIs. The
+table that follows illustrates which ABI compatibility levels
+can be satisfied by the QEMU CPU models. Note that the table only
+lists the long term stable CPU model versions (eg Haswell-v4).
+In addition to whats listed, there are also many CPU model
+aliases which resolve to a different CPU model version,
+depending on the machine type is in use.
