This command returns to guest information on LAPIC bus frequency and TSC
frequency.
One can see how this interface is used by Linux vmware_platform_setup()
introduced in Linux commit 88b094fb8d4f ("x86: Hypervisor detection and
get tsc_freq from hypervisor").

This is VMware documented functionallity that some guests rely on.
Returns the BIOS UUID of the current virtual machine.
Note that we also introduce a new compatability flag "x-cmds-v2" to
make sure to expose new VMPort commands only to new machine-types.
This flag will also be used by the following patches that will introduce
additional VMPort commands.

No functional change.
Defining an enum for all VMPort commands have the following advantages:
* It gets rid of the error-prone requirement to update VMPORT_ENTRIES
when new VMPort commands are added to QEMU.
* It makes it clear to know by looking at one place at the source, what
are all the VMPort commands supported by QEMU.
