docs: Add hvf on QEMU driver page
It's worth to make the domain type a little bit more visible than a row in news. An example of hvf domain is available on QEMU driver page. While at it, mention Hypervisor.framework on index page.

QEMU/KVM/HVF hypervisor driver
|

==============================
|

|
||||
The libvirt KVM/QEMU driver can manage any QEMU emulator from version 2.11.0 or
|
||||
later.
|
||||
|
||||
It supports multiple QEMU accelerators: software
|
||||
emulation also known as TCG, hardware-assisted virtualization on Linux
|
||||
with KVM and hardware-assisted virtualization on macOS with
|
||||
Hypervisor.framework (:since:`since 8.1.0`).
