Playground:

Adds support for usb and pcie (use -machine microvm,usb=on,pcie=on
to enable). Reuses the gpex used on arm/aarch64. Seems to work ok
on a quick test.

Not fully sure how to deal correctly with ioports. The gpex device
has a mmio window for the io address space. Will that approach work
on x86 too? Anyway, just not having a ioport range seems to be a
valid configuation, so I've just disabled them for now ...

take care,
Gerd
