In most cases, disabling the secure-boot or the enrolled-keys
firmware feature will achieve the same result: allowing an
unsigned operating system to run.
Right now we're only documenting the latter configuration. Add
the former as well, and explain the difference between the two.

It should be enough to enable or disable the enrolled-keys feature
to control whether Secure Boot is enforced, but there's a slight
complication: many distro packages for edk2 include, in addition
to general purpose firmware images, builds that are targeting the
Confidential Computing use case.
For those, the firmware descriptor will not advertise the
enrolled-keys feature, which will technically make them suitable
for satisfying a configuration such as
<os firmware='efi'>
<firmware>
<feature state='off' name='enrolled-keys'/>
</firmware>
</os>
In practice, users will expect the general purpose build to be
used in this case. Explicitly asking for the secure-boot feature
to be enabled achieves that result at the cost of some slight
additional verbosity.

When using runtime setting of logging with 'virt-admin' it can be
confusing that the settings are discarded when the shutdown timeout of a
daemon is reached.
Add a note about this behaviour along with a suggestion to use
virt-admin to disable the behaviour if needed.

While the content is slightly outdated it's still a good primer on how
an API call traverses through the client library and to the remote
driver.
To make the page useful, this commit:
- removes the paragraphs which were intended to serve as a directory
page for the 'internals' subdirectory
- adds a note saying that some facts might not be up to date
- adds linking to this page from the kbase directory page
- adds more monospace formatting around function names

Historically we had two top level XSL files for top level and nested
documents which only differ in what they pass for 'href_base' to the
main 'page.xsl' file.
We can instead pass the variable as argument from the build system so
that we have just one XSL file and also allow for more nested document
trees in the future.
The '404' page is special even with the current XSL way so we add a
special case for it.
