accel: Improve selection of the default accelerator
When compiling with "--disable-tcg", we currently still use "tcg"
as default accelerator. "kvm" should be used in this case instead.
Also, some downstream distros provide QEMU binaries which have "kvm"
in their names (e.g. "qemu-kvm" on RHEL or "kvm" on Ubuntu) that use
KVM by default - and some users might want to do something similar
with upstream binaries, too. Accomodate them by using "kvm:tcg" as
default when we detect such a binary name.
