qmp_device_list_properties() skips properties whose name starts with
"legacy-".  This is a flawed test for "is a legacy property".

The test is flawed because non-legacy properties can and do start with
"legacy-".  Back when it was added, no such properties existed.  Right
now, three such properties do: property "legacy-cmb" of device "nvme",
and properties "legacy-cache" and "legacy-multi-node" of devices
"x86_64-cpu", "i386-cpu", and its children.

This affects QMP command "device-list-properties", HMP command
"device_add T,help", and command line option "-device T,help".

Legacy properties are gone since commit a61383f7ab (qdev: Legacy
properties are now unused internally, drop, 2025-10-22).  This makes
the fix easy: delete the code that skips them.

Reproducer: -device nvme,help doesn't show legacy-cmb before the
patch, and does after.

Fixes: f4eb32b590 (qmp: show QOM properties in device-list-properties, 2014-05-20)
