NOTE: John and I had an offline conversation and we are aware that there will still be a case where
we can miss new-platform updates for guc-error-capture without being alerted by a warning:
Let's take the example of the empty blitter's engine-class-register-list. We dont have such a thing on
today's hardware.. we only have blitter's engine-register-list ... i.e. HEAD, TAIL etc. But if a future
platform were to introduce a blitter engine-class-register-list, we wont get a warning since the empty
list is there to prevent unnecessary warning for today's hardware. But we know this is better than
having to explain unnecessary warnings (which was the reason why a more verbose version of this code
was removed in the past).

I believe we are good with this solution here for now.
