Once upon a time, the error message was:
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
    qemu: -device nonexistant: Device "nonexistant" not found.  Try -device '?' for a list.
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
But progress marches on, and conversion to QError (commit 0204276)
9ae3a8
changed it into:
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
    Invalid parameter 'driver'
9ae3a8
    Try with argument '?' for a list.
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
Progress didn't stop there, of course.  After a couple of iterations,
9ae3a8
we arrived at the current message (commit 6acbe4c):
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
    qemu: -device nonexistant: Parameter 'driver' expects device type
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
Mission accomplished: this is complete mush.
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
We've since abandoned our quest for "rich" error objects, fortunately
9ae3a8
before it turned all error messages into mush.  Time to undo the
9ae3a8
damage to this one.  Make it:
9ae3a8
9ae3a8
    qemu: -device nonexistant: nonexistant is not a valid device model name
