This gives some more context about the behaviour of the commands in
unsupported guest configuration or platform scenarios.

We prefer imperative mood "Return" over "Returns".  Could also use "Get"
or "Query"; matter of taste.

Errors better go into their own section.

   # Returns: The @SevLaunchMeasureInfo for the guest
   #
   # Errors:
   #     - If the launch measurement is unavailable, either due to an
   #       invalid guest configuration or if the guest has not reached
   #       the required SEV state, GenericError

Likewise.

Suggest to use the opportunity to switch the intro to imperative mood.
Together:

   ##
   # Get SEV capabilities.
   #
   # This is only supported on AMD X86 platforms with KVM enabled.
   #
   # Returns: SevCapability objects.

Likewise.

docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst:

    For legibility, wrap text paragraphs so every line is at most 70
    characters long.

    Separate sentences with two spaces.
