Recreated the list with a better container :-/

#1 Bionic - as-is (libvirt 4.0 qemu 2.11) - Container -> Big List
#2 Bionic + Stein (libvirt 5.0 qemu 2.11) - Container -> 
#3 Bionic + Train (libvirt 5.4 qemu 2.11) - Container -> 
#4 Bionic + Focal-Binaries (libvirt 6.0 qemu 4.2) - Container ->
#5 Bionic - as-is (libvirt 4.0 qemu 2.11) - on Host -> Big List
#6 Focal - (libvirt 6.0 qemu 4.2) - Container - -> Big List

All confusion gone!
Ok that were a lot of checks to realize a simple truth.
The Eoan container I had initially thought I see your problem had no KVM as 
well :-/


But that might still help us as now I know rather exactly what to ask for.
Maybe your system doesn't detect KVM or some cpu flags correctly.

1. please provide the output of
 $ kvm-ok
2. please provide the output of
  $ sudo qemu-system-x86_64 --enable-kvm --nographic --nodefaults -S 
-qmp-pretty stdio
  {"execute":"qmp_capabilities"}
  {"execute":"query-cpu-definitions"}


In my systems case I can't select Skylake as well and the report tells me:
        {
            "name": "Skylake-Client-IBRS",
            "typename": "Skylake-Client-IBRS-x86_64-cpu",
            "unavailable-features": [
                "hle",
                "rtm"
            ],
            "static": false,
            "migration-safe": true
        },

Which is a known limitation due to 
https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2019/CVE-2019-11135.html
As discussed in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1853200 
this is a Won't Fix at the moment. But we could bump that bug and report this 
case "symptom" to reconsider adding e.g. a reduced Skylake type.

Waiting for your data first ...
