[v2,0/1] Improve module accelerator error message

Message

v1 -> v2:
* Moved the code to module.c
* Simplified a lot by using current module DB to get info

The main objective is to improve the error message when trying to
load a not found/not installed module TCG.

For example:

$ qemu-system-x86_64 -accel tcg
ERROR:../accel/accel-softmmu.c:82:accel_init_ops_interfaces: assertion failed: 
(ops != NULL)
Bail out! ERROR:../accel/accel-softmmu.c:82:accel_init_ops_interfaces: 
assertion failed: (ops != NULL)
[1]    31964 IOT instruction (core dumped)  ./qemu-system-x86_64 ...

To:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -accel tcg
accel-tcg-x86_64 module is missing, install the package or config the library 
path correctly.
