Subject: virtinst: delay "lookup_capsinfo" until we really need it

When I try to open the details window for a domain that does not use the
system default emulator, I get the following exception:

This is a regression; according to git-bisect, it was introduced in commit
05fcc7410eee ("virtinst: fix caching of domain capabilities", 2022-07-27).
"lookup_capsinfo" (and "guest_lookup" called by it) are unsuitable for
machine type alias checking (or for anything else) if the domain uses an
emulator that differs from the system default emulator. The information
returned by virConnectGetCapabilities() pertains to the system default
emulator. Thus, when using a non-default emulator, we should either not
call "lookup_capsinfo" for machine type alias checking, *or* we should
suppress the exception, and pretend that the alias check was a mismatch.
It turns out that we can avoid the "lookup_capsinfo" call (and thereby the
exception) in practice if we just delay the call until after the direct
(non-alias) comparison.
Fixes: #539
