Host as CPU type value

[BridgeHeadland]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, this value is not needed for my case.

What you want

I don't know if it works, but is it possible that DOSBox-X will be able to emulate the exact same CPU type as the host system, that it will emulate Pentium 4 or Core i9 for example, if the host system uses it? Then I think host could become a perfect value alternative. Personally, I see no reason why it should be added as of today, but maybe someone else does.

My understanding - related issues:

• CPU type = hypervisor (pass-through to the host CPU, whatever that is; utilizing the host for performance or accuracy reasons, but I would assume initially not all host features will be shown inside DOSbox-X) - #1089
• emulating Pentium 4 - #4185 and tangentially related #3217
• emulating x86-64 - out of scope, Bochs and QEMU are alternatives for that
