qapi-schema: Comment about full expansion of non-migration-safe models

Add a note warning that static expansion may not be 100% accurate
when the CPU model is not migration-safe. This will be the case
on x86 when expansing the "host" CPU model, because there are
"host" features that can't have a migration-safe representation
(e.g. "host-cache-info").

# migration-safe, but allows tooling to get an insight and work with
# model details.
#
# Note: When a non-migration-safe CPU model is expanded in static mode, some
# features enabled by the CPU model may be omitted, because they can't be
# implemented by a static CPU model definition (e.g. cache info passthrough and
# PMU passthrough in x86). If you need an accurate representation of the
# features enabled by a non-migration-safe CPU model, use @full. If you need a
# static representation that will keep ABI compatibility even when changing QEMU
# version or machine-type, use @static (but keep in mind that some features may
# be omitted).
#
# Since: 2.8.0
