What are these properties for? I assume you can't change them
on a real raspi 4b board, so why do we need to expose them
to users?

The only differences between these machine types are the
amount of RAM, right? We shouldn't expose that to users
via different board names. Provide a single board
"raspi4b", give it whichever default amount of memory
seems reasonable (I would suggest 1GB or 2GB, it avoids
annoying problems with "make check" on 32-bit hosts), and
let the user pick a different amount of RAM with the -m option
as they usually would. (You can sanitize that to check they
only picked a valid amount of RAM.)
This seems also like a good point to ask for an extra patch
which updates docs/system/arm/raspi.rst to document the
new board type.
